These black bean and corn quesadillas are really cheesy, a little bit spicy, and a little bit sweet. My vegetarian husband goes crazy over these every time! Feel free to play around and add chicken or veggies, if you desire. Don't forget the salsa and sour cream!

Fajitas at home! Chicken briefly steeps in a zesty marinade before a saute with onions and peppers in this faithful rendition of a Mexican favorite. Serve with warm flour tortillas, salsa and sour cream to complete the picture.
