Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove
1 tbsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 (14 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 tbsp taco seasoning
1/2 tsp cumin
4 -6 cups baby spinach
12 corn tortillas
2 -3 cups vegan mozzarella cheese
2 cups fresh salsa (homemade is best )

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Sautee the onion and garlic in the olive oil in a large skillet or pan. Add the chillis and heat, stirring, until oil takes on a slightly red color.
Add black bean, taco seasoning, cumin, and a little water or broth to prevent burning. Heat the beans over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally. Mash some of the beans to thicken the consistency.
Add the spinach (with a little more water, if necessary). Stir it in to the bean mixture. Cover and turn heat down to low. Steam for about 2 minutes or until the spinach is just wilted. Do not overcook.
Distribute the spinach-black bean mixture between 6 corn tortillas on baking sheets. Sprinkle with desired amount of vegan cheese. Top each one with another tortilla. Bake in oven 7-10 minutes or until cheese is melted. If desired, cut each quesadilla into 4 triangles with a pizza cutter. Serve with fresh salsa.
