1
Heat up the oil in a frying pan and saute the onions, garlic and spices for about 10 minutes over medium-low heat or until they are soft and translucent.
2
Add the tomatoes and salsa and cook for another 5 minutes.
3
Transfer the onion mixture to a seperate bowl and rinse out the pan.
4
Spread a thin layer of the beans on top of the entire tortilla (having the beans on both sides of the quesadilla keeps it from falling apart).
5
Spoon 1/4 of the onion mixture over just half of each tortilla and top with 2 oz of cheese.
6
Fold the tortilla in half so that it forms a half circle.
7
Repeat with the other 3 tortillas.
8
Heat up more oil in the pan and fry the quesadillas over medium-low heat, until both sides are browned and the cheese is melted.
9
Top with your favorite mexican condiments (I'm a huge avocado fan!
