Post Furlough/Student food - Quesadilla with beans and cheese.

 For my £15 a week menu I ended up using flour and beans to make a meal for one of the lunches.  Not a good combo you might feel but it turned out quite tasty.

Nothing in the cupboard quesadilla - serves 1

2 flatbreads

1/2 a tin of baked beans in tomato sauce

1/4 onion

1 clove garlic, crushed

grated cheese

oil, butter or in the case of the £15 menu margarine to cook.

Chop the onion really fine and soften in the oil, add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. 

Add to the baked beans and mash together well.  At this point if you have it add a pinch of cumin or chilli powder, alas I did not without cheating!

Take one of your flatbreads and spread with the beany mixture, top with grated cheese and put the other flatbread on top.

Heat up the frying pan, at this point you may be able to get away with no oil.  Put the bean sandwich you have created in the pan and allow to heat through for a couple of minutes on each side - the aim is to get it hot all the way through and allow the cheese to melt without the wraps burning, depending on how thin your wraps are it will be quicker or slower.
