Serve With

Instructions

  • Cook quinoa according to package directions. Drain and rinse beans, shred cheese (if needed), and slice avocado.
  • Place one tortilla on a cast iron skillet (my favorite) or a 12-inch frying pan. Add some cheese, beans, and cooked quinoa, then top with another tortilla.
  • Cook until both sides are browned and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Top with avocado, salsa, and/or chopped cilantro as desired; serve orange wedges on the side.
