Equipment

1 Pan

Ingredients

4 Quesadillas
1 cup Puerco asado chopped
1 cup cheese grated
1 cup black beans canned, drained
1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1 teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

First washed and slice the tomatoes.
In a large bowl, put all the ingredients but the tortillas. Toss well.
In a hot pan, over medium heat, pour some olive oil. Place a quesadilla and fill half of it with the mix from the bowl.
Fold the quesadilla over the filling and allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until it is golden and the cheese starts to melt. Flip it.
It is ready to be served! Repeat with the other quesadillas. Enjoy!

Notes

Choose a cheese that melts well for better results such as cheddar, Edam, mozzarella.
For a crispy effect, lightly grease the pan or panini press and place your quesadilla.
Eat within a day as it is already using leftover meat.
Serve with a salad or guacamole.
