INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 2 teaspoons olive oil
    • 🧅 3 tablespoons finely chopped onion
    • 1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
    • 🌽 1 (10 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
    • ¼ cup salsa
    • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
    • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter, or as needed
    • 🌮 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
    • 🧀 1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

STEPS

1

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot oil until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in beans and corn, then add salsa, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes; mix well. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

2

Melt about 1 ½ teaspoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the skillet. Sprinkle with ¼ of the Monterey Jack cheese, then top with ¼ of the bean mixture. Place another tortilla on top; cook until the bottom is golden, then carefully flip and cook until the other side is golden. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
