Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Finely chop mild chorizo. Grate carrot. Drain and rinse cannellini beans (see ingredients). • Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chorizo, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. • Add tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add cannellini beans and carrot and cook until softened and starting to break down, 3-4 minutes. • Add the water and baby spinach leaves and cook, until wilted, 1 minute. Season to taste.

• Arrange mini flour tortillas over a lined oven tray. • Divide chorizo filling between tortillas, spooning it onto one half of each tortilla, then top with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Fold empty half of each tortilla over to enclose filling and press down gently with a spatula. Brush (or spray) tortillas with a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Bake quesadillas until cheese has melted and tortillas are golden, 8-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling back into quesadillas.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the tasty chorizo, though some found it a bit salty or spicy. Several suggested adding sour cream to balance the flavours.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple to make, though some found chopping the chorizo time-consuming. Consider pre-chopped chorizo for even faster prep.
  • Suggestions: Try adding onion, garlic, or capsicum for extra flavour. Some preferred chilli or black beans over cannellini for more taste.
  • Portions: Several customers mentioned the recipe didn't quite feed four; consider adding extra tortillas or beans to bulk it up.
