Instructions
- Blend all the chimichurri ingredients with a few tablespoons of water until nearly smooth. Taste and adjust the salt and seasoning, adding a pinch of sweetener if needed to balance.
- In a bowl, mix the black beans, corn, bell pepper, roasted sweet potato, onion, the peppers and spices. Add some chimichurri to coat. Optionally, cook the mix in a skillet to deepen the flavour before filling the quesadillas.
- Spread the filling on one half of a large tortilla, add sliced vegan cheese, fold over and grill until the cheese melts. Alternatively, place a whole tortilla in a pan over medium heat, add the filling and cheese, top with a second tortilla and cook over medium heat, pressing occasionally.
- Slice and serve with more chimichurri, salsa or guacamole.
