Ingredients: |
|
2 cans |
|
garbanzo beans, drained |
|
2 tsp. |
|
Taco Seasoning Mix |
|
1/4 c. |
|
olive oil (plus more for pan) |
|
1 pkg. |
|
flour tortillas |
|
2 c. |
|
shredded cheese |
|
2 |
|
avacados, diced |
|
1 cup |
|
salsa |
|
1 cup |
|
sour cream |
|
|
|
sliced black olives, optional |
|
|
|
shredded lettuce, optional |
Directions: |
|
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix Garbanzo Beans with spices and oil. Cook Garbanzo Beans in oven at 350 for about 10-15 minutes. Smash beans with a potato masher or a fork.
Pour a small amount of oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. When oil ripples, it's ready to use (but watch it-- it'll smoke and burn if you don't use it immediately). Place a tortilla in the bottom of the pan, top with about 1/3 c. shredded cheese plus a couple spoonfuls of smashed garbanzo beans. Smooth out fillings, and top with a second tortilla. Heat for a couple of minutes, until bottom tortilla is golden-brown, then flip and repeat for second side (cheese should be melted).
Transfer quesodillas to a serving plate and cut into wedges with a pizza cutter. Top quesodillas with avacados, salsa and sour cream
