I made up this recipe tonight using stuff I had in my fridge and we all decided it was a keeper! The best part is, it's low fat and delicious!
4-5 slices turkey bacon (chopped and cooked)
1 can pinto beans
1 packet Goya Sazon seasoning packet
dash of lemon pepper
2 limes
cilantro
1 pouch 90 second minute rice (chicken flavored)
shredded cheddar cheese
tortillas
Added toppings:
chopped avocado
lettuce
sour cream
cilantro ranch dressing
tomatoes
Directions:
Drain beans and cook over medium heat with Goya seasoning packet and a dash of lemon pepper. While beans are heating up, cook your 90 second rice in the packet in the microwave and then add the hot rice to the beans. Chop a handful of cilantro and add to bean/rice mixture and squeeze two limes into the bean mixture as well.
Take two tortillas and layer shredded cheese, bean/rice mixture and cooked bacon and top with second tortilla. I grilled my quesadilla on my George Foreman grill and it was great. You could also cook them on the stove with a frying pan and a little oil. We served ours with a green salad with avocado, cheese, tomatoes and cilantro ranch dressing (the home-made Cafe Rio kind) and they went really good together.
