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:
- Heat the oil or butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and spread into one layer. Cook, without moving, until browned on one side, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Stir the mushrooms around the pan, and then add the sliced onions, peppers, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, smoked paprika, pepper and the salt. Cook the vegetables until the onions have softened and smell sweet, about 5 minutes. Add the kale or spinach and cook until bright green and wilted, another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Make quesadillas or transfer the cooked vegetables to an airtight container and refrigerate up to 5 days.
- Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray the pan or brush it with oil, and then place one tortilla down into the pan.
- Spread a quarter of the cheese over the tortilla and then spoon a quarter of the cooked vegetable mixture onto one half. Carefully fold the tortilla in half, and then use a spatula to press the top down so that it stays folded. Cook until the underside is toasted, about 2 minutes.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook until the second side is toasted and the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board and cut in half. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
- Keep cooked quesadillas warm in a 200 degree F oven while you finish making the remaining quesadillas.

- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat in a large non-stick sauté pan. Add sweet potato and sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through. Transfer to a separate plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Add the veggies and jalapeño, and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Stir in the cooked sweet potato, black beans, cumin, chili powder, a generous pinch of salt and black pepper, and sauté for 2 more minutes. Taste and add more salt, pepper and/or cumin if needed. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and set aside. Rinse (or just wipe off) the sauté pan until it is clean.
- Return the sauté pan to the stove, and reduce heat to medium. Place a tortilla* in the center of the pan and immediately sprinkle your desired amount of cheese evenly over the surface of the tortilla. Add a few large spoonfuls (about 1 cup) of the veggie mixture on one half of the tortilla, then sprinkle on some cilantro. Fold the other side of the tortilla over to create a half moon. Continue cooking for another 30 seconds or so, or until the bottom of the tortilla is crisp and golden. (Just lift it up and take a peek to see when it’s ready to go.) Then carefully flip the tortilla over and cook it for an additional 30-60 seconds on the second side.
