Quesadillas :

1) Here I am using Ready made Tortillas you can also make Tortilla from any flour.
2) First divide the Tortillas into 4 slices.
3) Heat the grilled pan.
4) Put the tortillas in the pan and heat them for 1 minute.
5) Now Cut the tortillas from the middle, so that from one tortilla you can see 2 parts and spread the tomato paste inside.
6) Again heat them in low flame
7) Repeat for every Tortilla and enjoy!

Benefits:

Red beans are high in dietary fiber, which helps to promote digestive health while increasing the absorption of healthy nutrients. Regular consumption of dietary fiber also helps to reduce bowel problems such as constipation and diarrhea and reduces the risk of cancer.
