- 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
- 1/2 whole red onion, diced
- 1 whole red bell pepper, diced
- 2-3 whole garlic clove, minced
- 1 398 ml can butter beans or other white bean, drained and rinsed
- 1/4-1/3 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- cayenne pepper (optional)
- black pepper (optional)
- salt (optional)
- 1-2 tbsp plain greek yogurt
- 2 large flour tortilla
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese

- 1 1/2 cups cabbage, very finely shredded
- 1 tsp plain greek yogurt
- 1 tsp buffalo sauce
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 1/2 tsp rice vinegar
- 1 pinch salt

## Instructions

1. Heat the butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the red onion and bell pepper and cook until softened, then add the garlic and cook another minute.
2. Add the beans, 1/4 cup buffalo sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne and black pepper, stir and cook.
3. Mash roughly half the beans with the back of a spoon until thick and cohesive, leaving plenty of whole beans for texture, add a splash of water if too thick, then taste and adjust buffalo sauce, salt or cayenne.
4. Remove from the heat and stir in the greek yogurt.
5. Toss the cabbage with greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, lime juice, rice vinegar and a pinch of salt.
6. Heat a little butter or olive oil in a clean skillet over medium heat, place one tortilla in the pan and sprinkle about half the cheese over one half.
7. Spoon half the buffalo bean mixture over the cheese, sprinkle another small handful of cheese on top, fold the tortilla over and cook until deeply golden and crisp.
8. Flip and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp, then repeat with the second tortilla.
9. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with the buffalo slaw and ranch.
