Savor the earthy combination of black beans and cumin, fluffy 
scrambled egg whites, fresh grape tomatoes and Monterrey jack cheese.
Time-To-Table: 15 min
Serves: 2

1 cup (8 oz) AllWhites (Brand)
1/2 cup black beans, drained, rinsed
1/3 cup grape tomatoes, quartered
1/4 tsp ground cumin
2 (7 or 8 inch) whole wheat tortillas, cut in half
1/4 cup (1 ounce) Pepper Jack cheese, shredded 

1. Spray 10-inch nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat 
over medium heat. Add AllWhites. As AllWhites start to set use spatula 
to lift edge of eggs, letting uncooked eggs flow to bottom of skillet. 
Cook until AllWhites are set but still moist.

2. Stir in black beans. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until beans are heated 
through. Sprinkle on tomatoes and cumin once eggs are cooked.

3. Spray one side of each tortilla half with nonstick cooking spray. 
Place tortilla on cookie sheet, sprayed side down. Spoon about 
1/2 cup AllWhites mixture on one side of each tortilla. Top each with 
1 tablespoon cheese. Fold other half tortilla over mixture, pressing 
lightly to create quesadilla sandwich (quesadillas will be full).

4. Heat broiler on HIGH. Broil 2 minutes, with quesadillas 4 to 6 inches 
from heat, or until tops are lightly browned. Carefully turn quesadillas 
over. Continue to broil 1 to 2 minutes or until other side is light 
golden brown.
