I’m sure we all have those days where we just want something SUPER EASY for dinner. I know that after some really rough and long days I’m so tired that I will definitely have breakfast for dinner. Blogger tip there for ya. If you’re still trying to keep up some nutrition, these Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas are for you. They are so easy they don’t even really need a recipe, but those flavours just go SO well together don’t they?!

You think you’ve had Mexican food, and then you go to Mexico. Again, my mind was blown away by how amazing Mexican food really can be. All the flavours. The heat. All the freshness! When you’re having quesadillas in Mexico, they are over the top, beyond delicious and so flavourful.

If you’ve been here before you know I love all forms of Mexican food. Burrito bowls Mexican street corn – the works. I love that each meal is packed with a variety of ingredients, sauces, and of course, avocado. Hello food heaven.

I miss the food so much, but these Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas will work well to help that craving whenever it pops up. I also love that you can also make fresh beans and grilled corn and even homemade cheese if you please to make these even more incredible. In summary, these Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas are:

Quick

Crisp on the outside

Have lots of protein

Are incredibly easy to make

So customisable

Very yummy

I kept it simple with a dollop of cashew cream or vegan sour cream , but you can use any dip you’d like. Creamy guacamole or just smashed avocado with some lime and salt would also taste amazing on top of these. Also, extra jalapeños, because yes.

Enjoy friends! Keep it simple and let me know what you’re thinking in the comments below!
