Refried Bean Quesadilla is a Mexican dish made with pinto beans or black beans or kidney beans. I have made the tortillas (roti or flat leavened bread) at home as they are simple to make and taste better than the store bought ones. This Quesadilla is healthy and delicious with lots of cheese and fresh salsa. Quesadilla can be baked or pan fried.
