Equipment

  • Frying Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas drained
  • 1/4 cup vegetable stock
  • 4 TBS Franks Hot Sauce any hot sauce you like
  • 1 TBS minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup scallions chopped
  • 1 cup vegan cream cheese
  • 6 large tortillas
  • 1 spray non-stick cooking spray
  • Guacamole - Optional Dipper
  • Salsa - Optional Dipper
  • Vegan Ranch - Optional Dipper

Instructions

  • Saute the onions and garlic in the frying pan with the vegetable stock - just use enough so they don't burn. You may need to add more liquid as you go.
  • Roughly mash the chickpeas in a bowl until there are no whole ones left and add to the frying pan.
  • Add scallions and hot sauce mixture and let the mix simmer for about 3 - 5 minutes until everything is mixed and soft. Transfer the mixture to the bowl you mashed the chickpeas in. (don't want to dirty anything else!)
  • Wipe out frying pan with a towel and put over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • Lay one tortilla down on a cutting board and spread 1/3 of the creamcheese on it evenly. Add 1/3 of the chickpea mixture on top of the cream cheese evenly. Then top with another tortilla. Gently slide into the frying pan.
  • Let this cook until it is crispy and brown on each side - about 3-4 minutes.
  • Repeat with tortillas and chickpea mixture until it is gone.
  • Cut quesadilla rounds into 6 sections.
  • Enjoy!
