I am occasionally lured toward the centrifugal pull of Taco Bell for nothing more than their bean burrito, but after realizing that I can make something lighter and better at home, I came up with this! It's a quesadilla! It's a buritto! It's...a quesaditto!! Ingredients:
1 small flour tortilla (i like trader joe's low-carb, low-cal version) |
1 teaspoon neufchatel cheese |
2 tablespoons pinto beans, rinsed |
1 tablespoon red onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon green chili, minced (or jalapenos if you like it hot!) |
2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, shredded (i like a mix of pepper jack and mild cheddar) |
hot sauce (i adore frank's red hot) |
Directions:
1. Spread neufchatel cheese on tortilla.
2. Add beans, mashing some with a fork and leaving some whole.
3. Pile on onion, chiles, cheddar, and a dash or two of hot sauce.
4. Either microwave for 45 seconds, roll like a burrito, and consume immediately, or fold like a quesadilla and toast in a hot skillet or in toaster oven for 4 minutes, flipping half-way through to crisp both sides.
5. Do it all over again. You know you want to.
