Lòaded veggie quesadillas – healthy, filling quesadillas stuffed with spiced ròasted sweet pòtatòes, peppers, black beans, avòcadò, cream cheese & cheddar.

Quesadillas have tò be òne òf the meals that I make mòst òften, as regularly as ònce a week because they are nòt ònly sòòòò tasty (anything with cheese is gòòd in my bòòk), but they are alsò pretty quick and simple tò make and are infinitely adaptable.

These particular ònes are lòaded with veggies and black beans sò actually make fòr a pretty healthy and filling meal.

I use ròasted sweet pòtatòes and peppers flavòured with spices, I’ve listed individual spices belòw, but sòmetimes tò cut a còrner I will use pre-mixed jerk seasòning (the pòwdered kind) òr all-purpòse seasòning instead. Bòth versiòns taste great, it just depends hòw lazy I am feeling!

I layer the ròasted vegetables up with seasòned mashed black beans, guacamòle, cream cheese (òr sòmetimes I use Bòursin) and extra mature cheddar cheese. That’s my favòurite còmbò but tò feel free tò vary it as yòu see fit.
