Cheesy Ground Turkey Quesadillas (With Black Beans)

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (to keep quesadillas warm while cooking batches).

Step 2

In a non stick pan on medium heat add olive oil.

Step 3

When shimmering, add onion and cook 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add ground turkey and break up into crumbles with a wooden spoon or potato masher. Add bell pepper, beans, corn, taco seasoning and chipotle powder. Heat until turkey is completely cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in tomato paste and broth and cook 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 6

Distribute half of the cheese among all tortillas (on one side of them).

Step 7

Distribute ground turkey mixture on top of cheese (about half a cup per tortilla). Then, sprinkle remaining cheese on top of ground turkey. Fold tortilla over so you have a half moon shape.

Step 8

Working in batches (about 2 quesadillas per batch), spray cooking spray or a drizzle of oil into pan and cook quesadillas (on medium low heat) for about 2 minutes or so per side until golden brown and cheese is melted (carefully turning and watching to ensure they don't burn and carefully turning with a large spatula). Grease pan, as needed, between batches. While continuing batches, place cooked quesadillas on a baking sheet in preheated oven to keep warm.

Step 9

Cut each half moon in half so you end up with 20 pieces. Serve with salsa, guacamole and/or sour cream. Enjoy!Note: If your tortillas are smaller or larger than the size used here, the quantity you yield will vary.
