Corn and Black Bean Quesadillas
By: Boomette
Mar 21, 2008
A recipe I found in the HomeBasic, Winter 2007. I have not tried it so I took a guess for the preparation and cooking time.
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise or low-fat mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup monterey jack cheese or cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 4 (10 inch) whole wheat tortillas
- 1 cup corn kernel, frozen, thawed
- 1/2 cup canned black bean, drained and rinsed
- 2 green onions, chopped
Directions
1
In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cheese and salsa. Spread one-quarter of the mixture onto each of the 4 tortillas.2
Sprinkle each tortilla with one-quarter of the corn, beans and onions. Fold the tortilla in half and press together.3
Preheat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Place a tortilla on the pan and cook until lightly browned on the bottom. Flip and cook the other side until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.4
Remove from pan and repeat with remaining tortillas. To serve, cut into wedges.

Yum, these were good. I used light miracle whip and low fat cheese. I loved them as written but think next time I might try using cream cheese instead of mayo. 
Thanks for a keeper!

Excellent! I love quesadillas and these were delicious. Used 2 chopped chipotle chilies and adobo sauce instead of salsa and left out the mayo (for calories sake). Also broiled them only because I didn't feel like washing the big pan. This will be a new stand-by since I always have these ingredients on hand. Thanks!

I added a little extra picante sauce. I may substitute the Mayo for cream cheese next time. I also added extra cheese. Needs a little heat, so I may add a little Jalapeno next time too.

Delicious! I've made these several times now, they make a great quick lunch or snack. I personally prefer them with a little extra salsa and no mayo.
