Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas

Superquick (15 minutes tops) and super good!  You won't even notice there's no meat!



Ingredients:

1 tbls. olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed (or use frozen cubes like I do!)
1/4 c. diced onion
1 diced red bell pepper
2 c. chopped tomatoes (diced in a can would work fine- just drain first)
1 c. frozen kernel corn
1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
6 (8 in) tortillas
1 c. Mexican blend cheese

Directions:
1. Preheat broiler and cookie sheet.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.  Add garlic, pepper, and onion and saute 2 minutes.  Add tomatoes, beans, and corn and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3.  Place tortillas on baking sheet coated with cooking spray.  Top each with 3/4 cup bean mixture and  4 tbsp. cheese.  Fold in half.  Coat tops with cooking spray.
4. Broil 3 minutes or until lighly brown.  Cut each into 3 wedges.
