How to Prepare Cheesy Cashew Quesadillas [Vegan, Grain-Free]
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot add onion and pepper, sauté for 5 minutes; then add zucchini, mushrooms, spices, and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Alternatively, mix all the same vegetable ingredients in a bowl. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place the vegetables on the sheet, and bake in the oven at 400°F for 10 - 15 minutes (until the peppers are soft), stirring halfway through.
- To assemble quesadillas, spread 2 - 3 tablespoons of cashew sauce over one side of the wrap. Place 1/4 of vegetable mixture over 1/2 of the wrap. Fold the half with no veggies over the other half. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
- Heat a teaspoon of oil in a large pan. Place 1 - 2 quesadillas in the pan (you might be able to fit 2 if your pan is large enough). Cook for 2 - 3 minutes, or until slightly browned on the bottom. Gently flip the quesadillas and cook the other side for another 2 - 3 minutes.
