Smoky Beyond Mince Quesadilla

Smoky Beyond Mince Quesadilla is a recipe from Beyond Meat. 

You may well have tried non-meat mince before but unless you have tried Beyond Meat mince (or their Meatballs or their Sausages) then you haven't really lived. 

Yes, they are jam-packed with protein and are plant-based so good for the environment and great for vegans and vegetarians, but they are also utterly delicious and making a positive impact on omnivorous eaters, too! Exchanges like "What? Are you sure this isn't meat?" "Yes! I'm sure!" are taking place.

We have a recipe from Beyond Meat for Smoky Beyond Mince Quesadilla.

It serves 4 takes 15 minutes to prepare and the cooking time is an hour.

The ingredients you require are 300g of Beyond Mince

8 wheat tortillas

2tsp of fajita seasoning

200g of grated plant-based smoky cheese 

4 mixed coloured peppers, de-seeded and halved.

Directions

Pre-heat your oven to 200c or 180c fan over, or mark 6 for gas.

Place the peppers in a roasting dish and drizzle them, with an oil of your choice. Roast them in the oven for 30 minutes or until they are softened.

Heat a large frying pan and fry the mince with the fajita seasoning, for approximately eight minutes until cooked through. Then set aside.

Remove the peppers from the oven and roughly chop them.

Heat a clean frying pan and add one of the tortilla wraps. Sprinkle a little of the grated cheese over it , then spread a quarter of the mince and peppers, making sure to create an even layer. Sprinkle with a little more of the cheese then top with a second tortilla wrap. Press down and cook foe 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is a lovely golden colour. Remove from the pan, keep warm and repeat until all the tortillas are used up.

Cut into wedges and serve.   

This was 100% absolutely delicious and we can heartily recommend it.
