Crab Quesadillas

![]() I was going to just make crab cakes again with the rest of the crab meat, but I felt like doing something different. After a little searching around I came across this recipe for crab quesadillas. They were pretty good. Definitely different. Adapted from Closet Cooking 1/4 lb crab meat 1/4 cup black beans 1 small tomato, seeded and chopped 2 tbsp chopped cilantro 1 green onion, chopped 1 jalapeno, finely chopped juice of a lime 1/2 tsp ground cumin salt & pepper, to taste 1 cup shredded colby/monterey jack cheese 2 large tortillas Combine all ingredients except cheese and tortillas. Marinate for 10-30 minutes. Spray a griddle with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place a tortilla on the hot griddle and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup of the cheese. On half of the tortilla spread a layer of the crab mixture. Fold the tortilla in half and cook, flipping once, until both sides are browned and cheese is melted. Remove to a cutting board and slice into wedges. Repeat with remaining tortilla, cheese, and crab mixture. Serve with salsa and sour cream if desired. Serves 2 |
