Potato Quesadillas

This recipe is from 1000 Vegan Recipes by Robin Robertson. Mallory brought these quesadillas to a meeting recently and received high praise.

Ingredients

• "1 tbs olive oil
• 1/2 c chopped onion 
• 2 baked or boiled medium potatoes, coarsely mashed
• 1-1 1/2 tsp chopped canned chipotle chile in adobo
• Salt and freshly ground pepper  
• 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas"

 Instructions:

1. "In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat.  Add the onion, cover, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.  Add the potatoes to the skillet and stir in the chipotle and salt and pepper to taste.
2. Spread a layer of the potato mixture evenly over each of the tortillas and fold them in half.  Arrange two of the quesadillas in a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-heat and cook until lightly browned on both sides, turning once.  Keep warm while you cook the remaining quasadillas.  Cut the quesadillas into quarters and serve warm."
