Ingredients
400g Tin Kidney Beans, drained
326g Tin Sweetcorn, drained
250g Roasted Red Peppers From a Jar, drained and roughly chopped
4 Spring Onions, trimmed, finely sliced
2tsp Chipotle Paste
4 The Bakery at Asda Wholemeal Wraps
100g 50% Less Fat Mature Cheddar, finely grated
150ml Reduced Fat Soured Cream
Fresh Coriander, to serve (optional)
Lime, to serve (optional)
Method
1Put the kidney beans in a bowl and use a potato masher to mash roughly so you just break the beans up a bit. Add the sweetcorn, peppers, spring onions and chipotle paste and mix thoroughly.
2Place 1 wrap on a large baking tray (or grill pan without the rack) and spread half of it with the bean mixture, leaving a 2cm border.
3Sprinkle the beans with a quarter of the cheese and fold the empty side of the wrap over, pressing firmly to make a semi-circle parcel. Slide along the baking tray. Repeat with the remaining wraps and filling until you have four quesadilla parcels on the tray.
4Place the tray under a preheated hot grill, not too close, for 3 mins, or until the wraps are hot and lightly toasted. Watch carefully so they don’t burn. Turn over carefully and cook on the other side for a further 2–3 mins, or until tortillas are lightly toasted on both sides, the filling is hot and the cheese has melted. You can grill these on the hob using a griddle pan if you prefer. Cut in half and serve with soured cream, a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of fresh coriander, if liked.
5Leftovers tip: Freeze any leftover uncooked quesadillas wrapped tightly in foil. Unwrap and thaw thoroughly before cooking. Leftover chipotle paste will last for 4 weeks in the fridge – use to spice up chilli con carne or stir into chicken casserole for a delicious smoky flavour.
