Cooking Steps

1
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. 
  • Thinly slice red onion.
  • In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt.
  • Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add it to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover onion. Set aside.
2
  • Meanwhile, drain and rinse black beans.
  • Roughly chop cucumber and tomato.
  • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, tomato, a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season and set aside.
3
  • Heat a large frying pan over high heat.
  • Cook beef mince (no need for oil!), breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add black beans, tomato paste and Mexican Fiesta spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
  • Remove pan from heat and stir in chicken stock pot and the water until combined. Season to taste.
4
  • Arrange tortillas over a lined oven tray. Divide half the beef mixture among tortillas (reserving some for lunch), spooning it onto one half of each tortilla, then top with half the Cheddar cheese. 
  • Fold empty half of each tortilla over to enclose filling and press down with spatula. Brush or spray tortillas with a drizzle of olive oil and season.
  • Bake quesadillas until cheese has melted and tortillas are golden, 6-8 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling and cheese back into quesadillas.

TIP: Place a sheet of baking paper and a second oven tray on top of the quesadillas if they unfold during cooking.

5
  • Drain pickled onion then add to cucumber salsa, tossing to combine.
  • Place cheesy beef and bean quesadilla on a plate.
  • Serve with half the cucumber salsa and half the light sour cream. Enjoy!
6
  • When you're ready to pack your lunch, place mixed salad leaves, remaining cucumber salsa and remaining beef mixture in a container. Top with remaining cheese and sour cream. Refrigerate.
  • At lunch, toss the naked burrito salad and season to taste. Enjoy!
