Cook over low heat for 3 minutes, or until fragrant (do not brown the garlic). Add the beans and stir to coat with the seasonings. Add the broth or water. Increase the heat to medium. Cook at a medium simmer for 15 minutes, or until the liquid reduces and the beans squash easily with the back of a spoon. Transfer to a blender or food processor fitted with a metal blade, or use an immersion blender, and process for about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until smooth. To make the quesadillas: Preheat a heavy skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lay the tortillas on a work surface. Spread 1 \/4 cup of the beans evenly over 3 tortillas. Cover with the other 3 tortillas. Cook the quesadillas, one at a time, on the skillet or griddle for 2 minutes, or until browned on the bottom. Flip and cook for about 2 minutes, or until heated through. Continue until all of the quesadillas are cooked. 6. Cut each quesadilla into 8 wedges. Serve with salsa for topping. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">Yield: 12 servings<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">Calories: 74<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">Fat: 2g<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">Fiber: 2g<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0 2 tablespoons olive oil\u00c2\u00a0 2 tablespoons minced garlic\u00c2\u00a0 1 1\/2 teaspoons ground cumin\u00c2\u00a0 1 1\/2 teaspoons dried oregano\u00c2\u00a0 1\/8 teaspoon salt\u00c2\u00a0 1 3\/4 cups home-cooked pink beans or 1 can (15 1\/2 ounces) pink beans, rinsed and drained\u00c2\u00a0 1 cup vegetable broth or water\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0 6 whole wheat flour tortillas (8&#8243; diameter)\u00c2\u00a0 3\/4 cup &#8220;refried&#8221; beans\u00c2\u00a0 1 cup purchased fresh salsa\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0 To make the refried beans: In a saucepan, combine the oil, garlic, cumin, oregano, and salt.
