Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by halving and pitting the ripe avocados, then scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash them thoroughly with a fork to achieve a creamy consistency. Mix in fresh minced garlic, a squeeze of lime juice, sea salt, cracked pepper, and crushed red pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Fold in the rinsed and drained black beans, sweet corn, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro into the avocado mixture. Gently mix until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
- Place a non-stick skillet on medium heat and drizzle in a little olive oil. Allow the oil to warm for about a minute.
- Take a large tortilla and spoon half of the avocado and bean mixture onto one half. Carefully fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape, pressing down gently to seal the edges. Repeat this for the remaining tortillas.
- Place the folded quesadillas in the heated skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip carefully and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute. Slice each one into wedges for easy serving.
