This is among my favorite vegetarian lunches because it whips up so fast, tastes terrific, is healthy and hearty, and leaves me completely satisfied. I often make this recipe in a batch for the whole week, to save time and money; you have to buy a whole package of tortillas, cheese, and a can of beans anyway... why let it go to waste? So it's convenient, and it is - wow - packed with 24 g fiber and 18 g protein... and barely breaks 300 calories. If you haven't invested in a kickin' lunch box yet, now is the time!

How Do I Make Cumin-Dusted Quesadilla Lunchbox?

Here is how you make Cumin-Dusted Quesadilla Lunchbox:

Place tortillas on a hot grill pan to sear slightly crisp on outside. Let cool. While cooling, chop lettuce leaves and halve strawberries; put in separate containers. Spoon salsa and guac in separate containers also. Assemble quesadilla by spreading refried beans on one tortilla, sprinkling on cheese, dusting with cumin powder to taste, and topping with other tortilla. Carefully package assembled quesadilla in a plastic bag or box large enough to accomodate it (gallon sized zip-locks are my favorite; just be sure to wash and reuse them to reduce landfill waste). Important: do not package the quesadilla until it is COMPLETELY cool. This invites condensation in the bag and makes for a soggy instead of a crisp quesadilla. Pack in fridge with accompaniments for lunch.At work, remove quesadilla from wrapping to a microwave-safe plate. Microwave quesadilla for up to 2 minutes, depending on microwave cooking times. Cheese should be gooey and beans warmed through, ascertained by lifting up the edge of the top tortilla. If your work has a toaster oven, that will work even better. Enjoy with salsa, guacamole, romaine, and strawberries. This meal is a protein and fiber powerhouse... enjoy!Number of Servings: 1Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BRRRANDI78.
