Instructions
- 1
Combine the sweet potato (1.5 cups), chickpeas (1 can), nutritional yeast (0.5 cup), and hot sauce (3 tbsp) in a food processor. Blend until all of the ingredients are well combined into a thick puree, similar to the texture of a thick hummus.
- 2
Spread the filling evenly onto [3-4 large tortillas], depending on how much filling you want in each one. Top with the remaining [3-4 large tortillas] and push together gently.
- 3
Lightly grease a large 12-inch skillet with a bit of oil (1 tbsp) or nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium. Once the skillet is hot, add one prepared quesadilla. Then place a smaller skillet on top of the quesadilla so that it presses down on the quesadilla. The weight helps form a nice crispy exterior. Cook the quesadillas for 3 minutes, or until golden brown on one side, then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes, or until both sides are crispy and nicely browned. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
