Italian Quesadillas

Recipe adapted from “Chloe’s Vegan Italian Kitchen” cookbook

Ingredients:

1 (15oz) can of white beans, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup olive oil

1 Tbsp water

1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 garlic clove

sea salt and pepper, to taste

Grain free tortillas (I like Siete almond flour tortillas which can usually be found in the freezer section of a grocery store)

1/2 cup chopped sun dried tomatoes

2 sliced avocados

Fresh basil and/or parsley, chopped (just sprinkle with a tiny bit of dried italian herbs if you don’t have any fresh)

---

1. Combine the beans, olive oil, water, garlic, and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.

2. Generously spread the bean mixture onto a tortilla, top with sun dried tomato, sliced avocado, and fresh or dried herbs. Place another tortilla on top.

3. Add a little bit of avocado oil (or another high heat cooking oil) to a hot pan. Using a spatula, carefully place the quesadilla onto the pan. Let cook 1-2 min or until browned and crispy. Carefully flip over the quesadilla and cook on the other side.

4. Add a little more oil and repeat step 3 until you use up the filling ingredients, this recipe usually makes 4 quesadillas.

5. Use a pizza cutter or a sharp knife to cut quesadillas into quarters. Serve and enjoy!
