Cheesy Chipotle Black Bean Quesadillas
These cheesy chipotle black bean quesadillas come together so easy and are absolutely packed with flavour.
Quesadillas are honestly one of my favourite quick foods to make cuz they're so GOOD and so easy to make. And can you ever go wrong with cheese filled anything?? No, of course not
These quesadillas are filled with a delicious mixture of black beans, mushrooms, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (they add so much flavour and smokiness) and lots of cheese. Perfection.
You could honestly substitute the beans with another protein like chicken or beef.

- Black beans

TIPS
