Fresh corn cut off the cob gives these quesadillas a sweetness and bite that frozen corn just cannot replicate. A fast weeknight dinner that disappears fast.

Ingredients

🌱 From Your Homestead

  • sweet corn (2 ears)
  • jalapeño (1)
  • fresh cilantro

🛒 From the Store

  • flour tortillas
  • black beans
  • shredded cheese
  • oil
  • sour cream for serving
  • lime

How to Make It

  1. Gather your ingredients: sweet corn (2 ears), jalapeño (1), fresh cilantro, flour tortillas, black beans, and the rest.
  2. Prep your homestead ingredients — wash, chop, and measure: sweet corn (2 ears), jalapeño (1), fresh cilantro.
  3. Cook quesadillas in a dry skillet — no oil needed if you have a good pan. Oil makes them greasy; a dry hot skillet gets the exterior perfectly crisp.
  4. Cook for approximately 20 min. Adjust to taste and serve 4 portions.
  5. Plate, enjoy, and share with your household!
