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.
I really liked the filling. I didn't think it was too spicey. The cooking times were too long and the temp did seem a little too high but I will be making this recipe again! Just need to adjust temp and cook time. Very Good!!
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?
