I know, how easy are these to make? After tons of experimenting, though, I feel like I've finally hit on the right combination of things to put in this quesadilla. Be forewarned: I KNOW that I'm being vague with the cheese measurement. I'll tell you why: as a poor vegetarian college student, I'm often looking for snacks that are portable, fairly cheap, and packed with protein. The solution? String Cheese! So, when I cook, I generally end up using string cheese instead of buying it pre-shredded or in a block. For this recipe, I use 1/2 to a whole cheese stick. It really depends on your taste.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons refried beans
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 cup veggie rice (rice made with vegetable bouillon instead of plain water)
mozzarella cheese
1 whole wheat tortilla
Directions:
On half the tortilla, spread the refried beans. Sprinkle with hot sauce, then layer rice and cheese. Fold the tortilla over and cook in an oiled skillet over medium-high heat, until the tortilla becomes crispy and develops heat marks and the cheese melts. Enjoy!
I have also been contemplating other ingredients like corn, peppers, salsa, & pico de gallo. Any suggestions?
