INGREDIENT NOTES:

VEGAN STEAK STRIPS:

• Here, we will use plant steak strips for these vegan quesadillas. These are chewy, and you will feel satisfied after adding them to your snack. These will also become flavorful once you cook them with other seasonings. Another vegan option for this can be tofu as well.

VEGAN SHREDDED CHEESE:

• Another main component of your vegan meal is cheese. Here, we will use vegan cheese for the cheesy flavor in your snack. The filling of your quesadillas will become creamy from using it. Make cashew cheese at home and add that as an alternative idea.

WHOLE WHEAT TORTILLAS:

• You need tortillas as the base for your quesadillas. These whole wheat tortillas are healthy for us as well. You will feel that these will become crispy after cooking them in the pan. Use all-purpose wheat tortillas if you need another idea.

ONIONS:

• These will include sweetness in the filling of your meal. Also, onions will become soft after you cook them. Add shallots if you need a different choice as well.

BELL PEPPERS:

• You will get a crunchy bite from adding them to your quesadilla. Also, these will make the filling of your snack colorful. You may use zucchini as an alternative idea as well.

OLIVE OIL:

• Add olive oil for the cooking of these ingredients. This oil will also make the flavor of your recipe rich. You may use cooking spray if you want a lighter idea.

SOY SAUCE:

• Soy sauce will give your recipe a savory flavor. You may also use coconut aminos as an alternative idea.

GARLIC POWDER:

• Add garlic powder to make the flavor of your filling strong. Use the fresh one if you need another idea as well.

BLACK PEPPER:

• Black pepper will include heat in your quesadillas, and you can reduce it the way you prefer.

PAPRIKA:

• We will also use paprika in your meal, so it gives a little smoky taste. You may add chili powder for something else.
