Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups chunky salsa
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
2 cups chopped cooked roast beef
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the salsa, cilantro and lime juice. In another bowl, combine the beans, corn and 1/2 cup salsa mixture. Set remaining salsa mixture aside.
Place beef, cheese and bean mixture on half of each tortilla; fold over. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook quesadillas in 1 tablespoon oil for 1-2 minutes on each side or until cheese is melted, using additional oil as needed. Cut into wedges. Serve with reserved salsa mixture.
