Preparation
1
Get Prepped

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks.

Cut the tomatoes into 1cm pieces. Pop them into a bowl, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Grate the cheese. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

2
Bring on the Beef

Drain and rinse the kidney beans in a sieve (see ingredients for amount, but use them all if you like beans!).

Pop them into a bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork or a potato masher.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef mince and pepper, then season with salt and pepper.

Fry until the mince is browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break up the mince as it cooked, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

3
Spice Things Up

Once the mince is browned, stir in the garlic, tomato puree and Mexican style spice mix. Fry for 1 min.

Add the crushed kidney beans, beef stock paste, water for the beef and sugar (see pantry for both amounts), then bring to the boil.

Simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened, 2-3 mins.

4
Assemble your Quesadillas

Taste the filling and add salt and pepper if needed.

Lay the tortillas onto a lightly oiled baking tray and spoon the filling onto one half of each one. Top with the cheese.Fold the other side over to make a semi-circle. Press down to keep together. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Rub a little oil over the top of each one and bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 8-12 mins.

5
Salad Time

Just before you're ready to serve, add the baby leaf salad to the tomatoes and toss together.

6
Serve

When everything's ready, transfer your beef and bean quesadillas to your plates.

Serve with the salad alongside.

Enjoy!
