Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a skillet on high heat with grapeseed oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, and zucchini - sauté to caramelize the vegetables. At the end, add the corn and spices, mix, turn heat off, and let cool.
Step 2
Remove the avocado from the shell, add lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mash ingredients together, taste for seasoning.
Step 3
Lay out half of the tortillas, spread refried beans, then the avocado, cheese, evenly spread the vegetables on top, add the chopped fresh cilantro, and fold the tortilla in half to close it.
Step 4
Prepare a clean skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush vegetable oil on the top of each folded tortilla, place the quesadilla in the skillet with the brushed oil side down. Once the base is browned and the filling is getting warm, brush the top of the folded tortilla and flip it over. Continue to cook until the filling is hot and the tortilla is golden (4-5 minutes for each side). Serve with salsa.
