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.
Is there any way to make this without an ice cream maker? I love the idea of this chocolate sorbet and was totally on board until the last part. Now I’m very curious and might have to do some googling after my daughter goes to bed.

I just started making ice cream after getting the ice cream attachment for my mixer. So I don’t personally have any experience making ice cream without an ice cream maker. I’m sure it’s been done. If you do make this without an ice cream maker, let me know how it turns out!
Great idea! Love chocolate ice cream and I love you don’t need cream or eggs! Going to try this recipe!

Let me know what you think of it. We really enjoyed it!
I added 1/4 tsp salt and 1 tsp vanilla. It was delicious.

So glad you enjoyed it! I love adding salt to desserts. I will definitely have to do the same next time I make this.
