You know it's going to be a good day when these bad boys are on the menu. With hidden, tasty beef and beautiful kidney beans, these tortilla pockets will be bursting with flavour in every bite. Don't forget the cucumber-coriander salsa to pack on top!
Unfortunately, this week’s cannellini beans were in short supply, so we’ve replaced them with red kidney beans. Don’t worry, the recipe will be just as delicious, just be sure to follow your recipe card!

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut mild chorizo into thin half-moons. Drain and rinse red kidney beans (see ingredients). • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. Drain oil from pan. • Add Tex-Mex spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add beans, mild chipotle sauce, soffritto mix and the water and cook until softened and starting to break down, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste.
• Arrange mini flour tortillas over a lined oven tray (if your tray is getting crowded, spread across two trays). • Spoon beef filling onto one half of each tortilla, then top with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Fold the empty half of each tortilla over to enclose the filling and press down gently with a spatula. Brush (or spray) with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Bake quesadillas until cheese is melted and tortillas are golden, 8-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling and cheese back into the quesadillas.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop cucumber and coriander. • In a small bowl, combine cucumber, coriander and a drizzle of the white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide beef and bean quesadillas between plates. • Top with cucumber-coriander salsa to serve. Enjoy!
