Vegan Black Bean Quesadillas

serves 4

1 (15 ounce) can great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup diced tomatoes, divided
1 clove garlic
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
salt to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
8 whole grain tortillas
cooking spray

Blend great Northern beans, 3/4 cup tomatoes, and garlic in a food processor until smooth. Add nutritional yeast, cumin, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper and blend until combined.

Transfer bean mixture to a large bowl. Stir in black beans and remaining 1/4 cup tomatoes.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place a tortilla in hot oil. Spread about 1/4 cup filling over tortilla. Place another tortilla on top of filling; cook until filling is warmed, about 10 minutes.

Spray the top tortilla with cooking spray and flip quesadilla to cook the second side until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
