Turn meatless Monday into quesadilla night! With this fresh veggie salsa, hearty and sweet pinto beans, and a touch of cheese, your whole family will look forward to vegetarian eating. For a little more zip, swap out the plain Monterey Jack for reduced-fat Pepper Jack. Smoked cheddar or gouda would also taste lovely with this combination—the secret to enjoying cheese responsibly is to savor small portions of a variety your family loves.
Instructions

- Spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Set it over medium heat. While pan heats, divide beans, cheese, and salsa between tortillas and fold in half. Grill each in hot skillet until cheese is melted and filling is warm (2-3 minutes per side).
