I found an excellent way to use leftover filling from the Lentil Walnut Mushroom burgers... make some quesadillas! This was super filling and a big hit with the man. Its also a great way to use leftovers from the meatless burgers making it fast to whip up.
This was also my first attempt at making homemade tortillas, I love how rustic it looks
Follow the recipe for Lentil Walnut Burgers until you get to the part where you form them into patties.
Put a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan and fry up the filling as if it was ground beef until browned. Place a large clean frying pan on medium / med high heat on the stove. Get a tortilla and spread lentil mixture evenly on one side, place in frying pan lentil side up. Sprinkle some cheese and spinach on filling and cover with another tortilla. It will be ready when the cheese is all melted. Serve with a side of salsa!
Wonderful use of leftovers. Always looking for creative uses for them. Cheers...
ReplyDeleteI love making my own tortillas too! I'm still trying to get them on the softer-suppler side, but they're still waaay better than store-bought. Have a great day Trisha!
