Cooking Steps
-
Place tortillas on a clean work surface. Fill one half of each tortilla with as much refried beans as you like (if desired, microwave any remaining beans and serve on the side); top with pepper jack. Fold tortillas in half and gently press down to create quesadillas.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add quesadillas and cover pan with lid; cook, undisturbed, until browned and crispy, 3-5 minutes.
-
Flip quesadillas; cook, uncovered, until browned and crispy, 3-5 minutes more. TIP: If quesadillas are browning too quickly, lower heat!
-
While quesadillas cook, wash and dry produce.
-
Quarter lime.
-
In a medium bowl, toss cabbage and carrot mix with ranch dressing, juice from half the lime, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Set aside until ready to serve, stirring occasionally.
-
Gently massage rice in package to separate grains. Partially open package to vent. Microwave for 1½ minutes (for 4 servings, microwave both packages of rice together for 2-3 minutes). TIP: Microwave times may vary. Be careful when handling and opening the package!
-
Remove from microwave and let rest for 30 seconds.
-
Cut quesadillas into pieces.
-
Divide quesadillas, slaw, and rice between plates. Serve with guacamole, salsa, sour cream, hot sauce, and remaining lime wedges on the side.
