    1 Spray a small non-stick frying pan with oil and set over a medium heat. Add cumin, chilli powder, onion and garlic to pan with capsicum and celery. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until soft.

    2 Add corn and baked beans to pan. Cook for 2-3 more minutes or until sauce thickens.

    3 Preheat a sandwich press. Spray outsides of wraps with oil. Place 1 wrap in sandwich-press and spread with bean mixture. Scatter with cheese and top with other wrap. Press sandwich-press lid gently and cook for 2-3 more minutes or until cheese melts and wrap is warmed through. Transfer quesadilla to a plate. Repeat process for the 2 remaining wraps.

    4 Cut quesadillas in quarters and place 2 quarters on each serving plate. Place rocket, tomatoes and avocado in a salad bowl. Toss.

    5 Top quesadilla quarters with salad and serve with lime wedges.

    Variations

    Make it gluten free: Check spices and beans are gluten free and use gluten-free wraps.

    HFG tip

    To stop bean mixture from spilling in the sandwich press, leave a 2cm border from edge of wrap.
