Quick GF Quesadillas |
This recipe for "quick gluten-free quesadilla" is the beginning of (I hope) many fast and healthier GF Fast Foods (or GFFF). A lot of gluten-free "baking" recipes have anywhere from 7 and up ingredients that can bog down someone who has limited time and X number of tummies to fill. After eating pretty high "raw vegan" for a time, I also find that the majority of GF recipes contain dairy, eggs, and refined sugar, verboten items for anyone trying to "eat healthy". So, here is my first contribution to speed-it-up real food.
(2 per person) Brown Rice Tortillas (I buy mine in the freezer at the Health Food Store)
2 medium Onions, diced
3 large Oyster Mushrooms (brushed clean and chopped)
14 oz. can of Pinto Beans
Organic Emmental Cheese, grated
1 clove organic Garlic, grated
1 T. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Celtic Sea Salt (to taste), other spices as desired
- Dairy sensitive or dairy allergic? Use GF refried beans or your favourite GF veggie cheese instead of cheese and pinto beans
- Place 2 tortilla shells on baking pan (or pizza pan) and sprinkle grated cheese on each
- Prepare vegetables above (chop, dice, etc.)
- Stirfry above vegetables in Coconut Oil for brief time (until softening)
- Place veggies and cheese (or bean paste) on the torillas
- Sandwich the torillas together and lightly press together
- Bake at 350-400 degrees F. for about 5 or so minutes
- Remove from oven, score into pie wedges with a pizza cutter and serve with a green salad
Hope you enjoy! (of course, you can also make this "fast GF food" using your other favourites and leftovers-- add together stuff like wild tinned salmon, quinoa, red peppers, soft-scramble eggs, turkey, soy cheez, and maybe even a dessert quesadilla with grated apple, cinnamon and cheddar cheese?
