Avocado Quesadilla

The other day I was craving black beans and avocado, so I threw a few things together and YUM - it was delicious, so I had to share!

This is a quick and simple lunch with leftovers for the next few days! 


I started by putting black beans and a can of diced tomatoes into a colander.  I wanted to drain the tomatoes a bit.  (Salsa would have been a better option, but I didn't have any!) 


Then I cut the avocado up and added it to the beans and tomatoes.


I added a little lime juice and cumin for some flavor.


Once I mixed it up I placed it between whole wheat tortillas with some cheese. 
Microwaved it for just under 2 minutes and then cut into a delicious quesadilla! 

Ingredients:
1 Avocado
1 can black beans
1 can diced tomato with onion and green pepper
1/4 C shredded nacho cheese blend
1/4-1/2 tsp lime juice
1/2 tsp cumin
Whole wheat tortilla

When I make this again I think I will add some fresh green onions and perhaps a dash of chili powder for an extra zing.
