*The complete, printable recipe is in the recipe card at the end of this post.
- Coat both sides of the tortillas with cooking spray. Place one tortilla in a hot skillet to brown. Flip the tortilla and add the cheese, mango and beans on half of the tortilla; fold the tortilla over to cover the ingredients. Cook until the tortilla browns, then flip and cook the other side; remove the tortilla to a cutting board.
- Repeat with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
- Cut each tortilla into 4 wedges and serve immediately.
➡️ Tips and Substitutions:
- In the summertime, substitute fresh peaches for the mango- yum!
- Add a sprinkle of fresh cilantro in these quesadillas, and top them with sour cream and salsa.
- Fresh avocado would be a great addition.
- Use a different kind of cheese, if you’d like. Monterey Jack or Cotija would be great too.
