Cooking Steps

1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Drain corn, then pat dry with paper towels. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 1 TBSP (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Dice tomato. Roughly chop cilantro. Quarter lime

  • Place beans and their liquid in a medium bowl; using a potato masher or fork, mash about half the beans.

2
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat; add corn, sliced onion, and ⅛ tsp sugar (¼ tsp for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and corn is lightly charred in spots, 4-6 minutes.

3
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tomato, minced onion, cilantro, juice from one lime wedge (two for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.

4
  • Add beans and juice from two lime wedges (four for 4 servings) to pan with corn. Season with Fajita Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are warmed through, 1-2 minutes. 

  • Turn off heat; transfer veggies and beans to bowl used to mash beans. Wash out pan.

5
  • Arrange tortillas on a flat surface.

  • Evenly sprinkle bottom half of each tortilla with plant-based "cheddar" shreds, then top with veggies and beans. Fold tortillas in half to create quesadillas.

6
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for veggies and beans over medium heat. Working in batches, add quesadillas to pan and cook until tortillas are golden brown, 1-2 minutes per side. TIP: Add a drizzle of oil between batches. Lower heat if quesadillas are browning too quickly.

7
  • Divide quesadillas between plates. Serve with pico de gallo, hot sauce, and any remaining lime wedges on the side.
