Crispy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Protein Quesadilla
Enjoy a crispy, hearty quesadilla combining roasted sweet potato, flavorful black beans, and protein-rich firm tofu nestled in a whole wheat tortilla. This savory dish is seasoned with a blend of cumin, garlic, and pepper, then lightly crisped in olive oil for a golden finish.
INGREDIENTS
1 medium Whole Wheat Tortilla
1 medium Sweet Potato (roasted and cubed)
1 cup canned Black Beans, drained
150g Firm Tofu, crumbled
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
Seasonings (Cumin, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper, Salt)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes, toss lightly with a pinch of cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the sweet potato is roasting, press the tofu to remove excess water. Crumble the tofu into small pieces and season lightly with a dash of cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In a non-stick skillet, heat 1/2 tsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it begins to brown. Stir in the black beans and roasted sweet potato cubes; heat through for an additional 2 minutes, combining the flavors.
Place the whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Spread the tofu, bean, and sweet potato mixture evenly onto one half of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla over to encase the filling.
Return the filled tortilla to the skillet over medium heat. Grill each side for about 3 minutes until the tortilla is golden and crispy, and the filling is warmed through.
Cut the quesadilla into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy this nutrient-packed dish that’s both satisfying and balanced!
