Black bean and butternut squash quesadillas

Hubby and I have been trying to eat healthier. I saw these quesadillas on Lori’s blog and knew that I wanted to try them. We both love butternut squash and these were great. Very filling and delicious.

Black Bean and Butternut Squash Quesadillas – adapted from Lori’s Lipsmacking Goodness

1 med onion chopped – I used a small onion and a 1/2 green pepper
minced chilies, to your liking – I omitted
2 cups butternut squash, cubed and roasted
1 cup cooked black beans
1 clove garlic minced
2 oz cheddar cheese, shredded – I used shredded sheep milk cheese

Saute onions in olive oil till golden. Add garlic and remainder of ingredients, except cheese. Spoon over tortillas. Sprinkle cheese over the filling. Place a tortilla on top. Press. Bake at 375 F.

I’m always looking for new ways to prepare salmon, too, and I love the idea of herbed mustard!

Jeff doesn’t love salmon, but I bet I could get him to eat it with this topping. Sounds so flavorful!

This looks amazing! I have everything for the sauce already other than the Dijon Mustard. Do you think I can use regular mustard?

  It would definitely have a different flavor profile, but I love regular mustard! I think it would be great – let me know what you think of it.
