Steps:
- In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Stir in the chipotle peppers and tomatoes. Cook until most of the liquid from the tomatoes has evaporated and the mixture is thickened, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Stir in the scallions, honey, chicken, salt and cilantro. Keep warm.
- Heat a sauté pan over medium heat and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Lay a tortilla in the pan and heat until hot to the touch but not crisp (air pockets may form). Flip the tortilla over, then sprinkle ⅔ cup of the cheese evenly overtop, being careful to keep it off the pan. Spread a generous ½ cup of the chicken mixture over half of the tortilla. When the cheese is mostly melted, fold the tortilla over to cover the filling and form a half-moon shape. Cook until the tortilla is crisp and golden and the cheese is melted, adjusting the heat as necessary, a few minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Let the quesadillas rest a few minutes to allow the filling to set, then cut into wedges. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges, if desired.
- Note: If you have a large griddle, use that to make the quesadillas so you can make a few at a time. Also, be sure to serve your quesadillas hot of the pan (or off the griddle), otherwise, they'll get soggy and the cheese will harden. If this does happen, you can pop them in a 350 F degree oven to heat them up, but they won't be as crisp and gooey as they are fresh. The chicken mixture can be made up to 2 days ahead, cooled, covered, and refrigerated.
- Note: The nutritional information does not include the optional ingredients.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked quesadillas can be frozen for up to 3 months. After defrosting in the refrigerator, reheat them, wrapped in foil, in a 325°F oven until hot, 20 - 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Place the bell peppers directly over a gas flame. Char on all sides until the skin burns, 3 to 5 minutes. Refrigerate them to cool quickly, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Place the peppers on a flat surface. Remove the top core and open the pepper up so it lies flat on the cutting board, charred skin-side up. Use a kitchen towel to wipe the charred skin away. Remove the seeds and slice the peppers lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until it begins to smoke lightly. Add the zucchini, then sprinkle with salt and cook until tender and lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl or baking sheet to cool.
- Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to the same pan where you cooked the zucchini, followed by the scallions and garlic. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and cook over medium heat until they become tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and chili powder and cook until the tomatoes break down a little, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the black beans and vinegar and cook, gently pressing on the beans with the back of a spoon to crush and mix with the tomatoes, until the vinegar cooks down, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for seasoning. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool for about 30 minutes.
- Arrange 6 tortillas on a baking sheet and spread each with about 2 tablespoons of the bean mixture. Drain any moisture from the peppers and zucchini and gently press them both on top of the black bean mixture to make it all stick together, then top with the cheese. Press the remaining 6 tortillas on top of the filling. Top with another baking sheet and gently press down to flatten the filling and make the quesadillas sturdy. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Heat a grill pan or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and heat until it smokes lightly. Add 2 quesadillas, side-by-side, and brown on the first side, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a metal spatula to flip them on their second side. Add about another tablespoon of oil and cook until browned around the edges, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a sheet tray. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas in batches of 2, keeping the cooked quesadillas warm in the oven.
- On a flat surface, cut each quesadilla into quarters and arrange on individual plates or a large serving platter. Top with the sour cream, sliced cayenne pepper and cilantro leaves.

Steps:
- Roast the chiles by using metal tongs to hold them one-by-one over the flame of your stovetop until the skin is totally charred. (If you don't have a gas stove, you can use an outdoor grill OR place them on a baking sheet directly under your oven's broiler.) When totally blackened, place the chiles in a large resealable plastic bag and seal the bag to allow them to sweat for a good 20 minutes. Then use a knife to scrape off most of the blackened skin. Stem, seed and finely mince the chiles.
- Butter a large cast-iron skillet generously and set over medium heat. Put 1 tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle on a third of the Monterey Jack and pepper jack cheese, evenly spreading it all the way to the edges so that the surface will be totally covered. Sprinkle on a third of the roasted chiles. Wait for the cheese to mostly melt, then fold half of the tortilla over itself. Cook for 20 more seconds, then flip the half-moon over and cook until the tortilla is buttery and golden, for 30 more seconds. Keep warm and repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese and chiles. Cut into 4 or 5 wedges each and serve with bowls of chili.
CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Super satisfying and ready in less than 10 minutes, it's no wonder quesadillas are a mealtime favorite. In Mexico they're typically made with Oaxaca cheese, however Cheddar, jack or colby provide an impressive melt too! Enjoy with homemade salsa and avocado.

Steps:
- Lay 6 tortillas on a work surface. Divide the cheese among the tortillas. (Its best to leave about an inch border on the edge of the tortilla uncovered to allow for the spread of the melting cheese.) Top with remaining tortillas and press gently to seal. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet. Carefully place a quesadilla in the skillet and fry, turning once, until golden and little bubbles appear on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, wiping out the pan between batches if the butter burns, and adding more butter, as needed.
- While the quesadillas cook make the salsa: Halve the tomatoes and grate them on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl, discarding the skins. Grate the onion into the tomato, and stir in the cilantro, hot sauce, and salt, to taste.
- Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges with a pizza wheel or knife and serve with the salsa and avocado.

- Heat olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan (about a 10-inch or 12-inch pan) over medium heat. Once oil is hot, add ground beef, chili powder, chipotle pepper, oregano, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking the ground beef into crumbles (smaller pieces), until the ground beef is fully cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes or so. Stir in tomato paste and stock/broth and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove beef from the pan and place into a bowl. If there is any excess grease, drain/remove.
- Distribute about 8 ounces (or 2 cups) of cheese among all tortillas (on one side of them). Note: Reserve the remaining 4 ounces (or 1 cup of cheese).Also, if your tortillas are smaller or larger than the size I used, the quantity you yield may vary.
- Distribute ground beef on top of cheese. Then, sprinkle remaining 1 cup (or 4 ounces) of cheese on top of ground beef. Fold over each tortilla so it's a half-moon shape.
