Ingredients
  

4 small flour tortillas

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a flavorful blend)

1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1/2 red bell pepper, finely diced

1/2 small onion, finely diced

1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves, chopped

1 teaspoon taco seasoning

1 tablespoon olive oil, for brushing

Salsa or guacamole, for dipping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese, black beans, corn, diced red bell pepper, diced onion, chopped spinach, and taco seasoning. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed and coated with the seasoning.

    Assemble the Quesadilla Rolls: On a clean, flat surface, lay one tortilla down. Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the prepared veggie and cheese mixture into the center of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to keep the filling secure. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and filling.

      Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to preheat at 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes. Preheating is essential for achieving a crispy texture when cooking.

        Brush with Olive Oil: Use a pastry brush or cooking spray to lightly coat the exterior of each assembled quesadilla roll with olive oil. This step is vital for getting that desirable golden-brown crispiness.

          Air Fry the Quesadilla Rolls: Arrange the quesadilla rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. If needed, cook in batches to ensure even crisping. Air fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are crispy and beautifully golden brown.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, carefully remove the quesadilla rolls from the air fryer and allow them to cool for a minute. Serve them warm alongside salsa or guacamole for dipping.
