Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup frozen corn, thawed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 medium flour tortillas

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the diced mangoes, diced avocados, black beans, and thawed corn. Season with ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Place a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil. Place one tortilla in the skillet and spread 1/4 cup of the mango, avocado, black bean, and corn mixture evenly over the tortilla. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the mixture. Place another tortilla on top to cover the filling.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute before slicing them into wedges. Serve with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
