QUICK & EASY VEGAN QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• First, whip up a batch of the Easy Vegan Queso. (Don't worry, the blender does all the work for this one.
• Next, dice the pepper and onion. And chop the kale into small bite-sized pieces.
• Grab a non-stick pan and pre-heat it over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes.
• While the pan is pre-heating, grab yourself a small glass of water for the saute.
• Next, add the diced peppers and onions to the pan. Allow the onions to sweat for 3-4 minutes. Add some water 1 tbsp at a time if things begin to stick to the pan.
• Then, add the minced garlic, spices and 2 tbsp of water to the pan. Continue to saute for 4-5 minutes, until the onions and peppers are almost as soft as you'd like them.
• Add the chopped kale to the pan and stir it into the mixture. Leave the pan on the heat for 2-3 minutes while the kale wilts and softens.
• Remove the pan from the heat and begin pre-heating a clean pan over medium heat to toast the quesadillas.
• Place your whole wheat wrap flat on a cutting board and spread with a generous layer of the queso sauce.
• Then, add 1/4 of the mixture from the pan over one half of the queso spread.
• Fold the other half over the toppings and place in the warm pan.
• Continue with the other 3 wraps.
• Toast the quesadillas in the pan for 3-5 minutes per side, just long enough for them to toast up and gently brown.
• Transfer toasted quesadillas to a cutting board and allow to cool for a few minutes before cutting them into halves or thirds.
• Serve with salsa, guacamole or leftover queso sauce for dipping.
