  • 2 cups Roasted Butternut Squash

  • 1 (15-ounce) can O Organics® black beans, drained, rinsed, optional

Preparation

Step 1 :

Make the quesadillas. Sprinkle ½ cup cheese on one half of each tortilla. Top with 3 tablespoons caramelized onions and as much butternut squash and black beans, if using, as you like. Sprinkle with ¼ cup cheese and fold tortilla over the filled half.


Step 2 :

Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Once the oil is glistening, working with one at a time, add the quesadillas and cook until browned, then flip and cook until browned and the cheese is melted. Remove from the skillet and repeat, adding 1 teaspoon oil to the skillet for every quesadilla.


Step 3 :

Make the crema. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, heavy cream, and hot sauce until smooth.


Step 4 :

To serve, cut each quesadilla in quarters and drizzle with chipotle crema. Serve with desired toppings.
