I wanted to share this tasty recipe from Jackie with you all. You probably already e-mail with her, so why not know what she’s cooking up in her kitchen? Enjoy!
Our recipe of the week blogs have been so amazing that I just had to get in on the action. One of my favorite Mexican dishes has always been quesadillas. Now, I don’t always have vegan cheese, and sometimes, I want something just a bit healthier. That’s why I came up with the concoction below. It’s extremely easy, loaded with protein, and you’ll be able to get your quesadilla fix on (without contributing to the cruel dairy industry!) Feel free to add any ingredients like black olives, onions, or anything you can dig out of your fridge. All of the ingredients can be found at your local grocery store—and they’re pretty cheap, too!
Add beans to saucepan on medium heat. Mash with a fork until smooth and stir in half of the seasoning packet (or seasonings of your choice to taste). Cook until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in the cilantro. Heat tortilla on a skillet or for a few seconds in the microwave. Add some of the bean mixture to half of each tortilla and fold over quesadilla style. Serve with salsa or guac. Enjoy! These are easy to wrap in foil and bring for lunch.
Let me know what you think!
P.S. Want more quick, easy (and delish!), ideas for lunch? You’re in luck; we’ve got ‘em! (Warning: These blogs may make you extremely hungry.)

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
