Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- flour tortilla(s)
- drained canned kidney beans or red pintos
- drained sliced black olives
- diced onion
- grated vegan soy cheese (cheddar, co-jack, or jack)
- drained canned or jarred artichoke hearts (optional)
Directions:
This recipe can be made with ease and no cooking oil either
by heating it on a cookie sheet in a pre-heated oven at 400
degrees Fahrenheit for about 5 minutes, or by heating it
for about 1 minute in a microwave. The oven will brown the
tortilla(s) a bit, which I like.
Simply place about 1/4 cup of beans, 1/4 cup cheese, a
heaping tablespoon of olives and the same of onion on half
of each tortilla. Add 2-3 artichoke hearts to each if
desired. Fold the tortilla(s) in half so the filling is
covered and proceed to heat until the filling is warm and
the cheese is melted. This is a very easy snack or dinner
on a busy evening and provides plenty of protein. Most
adults eat 2. Good with soup or salad. Kids may not want
the onions or the artichoke hearts, but usually do fine
with the other ingredients. It is a flexible recipe that
allows one to add or delete ingredients easily.
Serves: 1 or more
