Like others I had a whole lot of skepticism about a quesadilla without cheese, but with wife on a vegan kick I thought I'd give it a try. It was delicious and cheap! The texture wasn't quite the same as with cheese, but it wasn't unappealing or weird like some vegan recipes. I think the nutritional yeast really gives it a earthy yet cheese like flavor, infinitely better than "Vegan Cheese" Anyway, added a diced Jalapeno with the black beans, also added 1-1 1/4 cup clack beans instead of 1/2 cup. I should of added the whole can though, wouldn't of hurt anything. Will surely make this again!
WOW! I don't normally like and rarely (never) love anything with the word Vegan in it, but these were incredible. I increased the tomatoes slightly, but that's just because I have an addiction. Thanks DownHomeCitySisters!
These were amazing! I added some chopped yellow bell pepper and spread avocado on one of the tortillas. Hint - get the tortillas really crunchy...mmmmm for sure having these again.
This was a delicious recipe! I followed the recipe exactly and served it with salsa and vegan sour cream. My husband who is a meat and cheese lover even raved about this recipe. We will definitely be making this again.
I very much dislike nutritional yeast, but decided to give this a try because of the rave reviews from meat eaters. I'm glad I did! Even my husband, who actually scoffed at me, went back for seconds.
i was really nervous about the yeast but it came out great! makes for a good snack or meal. didn't have a food processor but i used my blender and the paste came out fine with prescribed ingredient quantities. next time i will use less ingredients as i had quite a bit left over once i had used up the tortillas. thanks for sharing:)
Quite tasty.. I love nutrtional yeast and i added a nice cheesy taste to this. I'll make this again
Changes for future: one can diced tomatoes use 3/4 of the can. Cook over low-medium heat ( 3 ) to achieve the cooking times listed (10/3 minutes). Use 1/2-3/4 cup filling per 8 tortilla. Add yeast as needed. I just mashed the northern bean mixture. Replaced cayenne with red pepper flakes. A little bland. Serve with guacamole.
These were a huge hit with the whole family, and I'm about to make them again right now. I used black beans in place of the Great Northern because that's what I had on hand. My family (aside from myself) eats cheese, but no one asked for it or missed it. These are a new fam fave!
We really didn't like these at all.. We are vegan so we are used to cheeseless quesadillas as we make them quite often. I think we had high expectations based on all of the 5 star reviews. Also the ingredients indicate 1/4 cup tomato's but in the directions it indicates 3/4 cup?
