Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Prepped
1

a) Drain and rinse the mixed beans. Pop into a bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork or a potato masher. b) Trim and thinly slice the spring onions. Grate the cheese. c) Add the spring onion, cheese, chipotle paste and tomato puree to the beans. d) Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar. Mix well. e) Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat. f) Add the chorizo to the pan, stir-fry until starting to crisp for 2-3 mins. g) Once cooked, remove the chorizo and stir it into the bean mixture.

Make the Quesadillas
2

a) Lay the tortillas out on a board. b) Spread a little of the bean mix over half of each, leaving a small border round the edge, then fold the tortillas in half to make half moon shapes. c) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Cook the Quesadillas
3

a) When hot, carefully lay the quesadillas in the pan. Fry until golden, 2 mins each side. Turn carefully. b) Lightly press down on the quesadillas with a spatula to ensure they stick together and brown nicely. TIP: You may have to do this in batches, adding a little more oil to the pan each time. c) Once cooked, just cover the quesadillas with foil to keep warm.

Avocado Time
4

a) While the quesadillas are frying, slice lengthways into the avocado. Once you reach the stone, turn the avocado around to cut it in half. Twist each half and pull it apart. Remove the stone then scoop out the insides onto a board. b) Roughly chop the avocado. c) Halve the tomatoes.

Dress the Salad
5

a) In a large bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar with the olive oil (see ingredients for amount). b) Season with salt and pepper. c) Add the rocket, tomatoes and avocado and toss gently.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Serve the quesadillas alongside plenty of rocket salad. Enjoy!

Step 1 MOD:

a) If you've opted to add chorizo to your meal, then once you've mashed the beans, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat.

b) Add the chorizo to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 mins.

c) Once cooked, remove the chorizo and stir it into the bean mixture.
