Loaded Sheet Pan Quesadillas Recipe

These loaded sheet pan quesadillas are the perfect Friday night dinner!

A while back, I asked people on Facebook what their usual Friday night routine is where food is concerned. I was curious to know if you guys cook on that evening or if it’s more of a “take out” or “eat out” type of night.

A shot of a hand holding a serving of these Clean Eating Loaded Sheet Pan Quesadillas. You can see the melted cheese oozing between the layers of the whole grain tortilla as well as a few beans peaking out. The quesadilla is topped with a small sprinkle of bright red salsa and you can see bits of fresh cilantro scattered over the top as well.

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that many of you do actually cook on Friday nights! But the one resounding and overwhelming theme was that, while you may cook, you still do everything humanly possible to keep is really simple and easy. Pizza nights are popular as are other simple foods you can pop in the oven to be done with it.

I so understand!

While my schedule runs a bit different from most, I can totally relate to having that one night of the week where you just want to keep thing simple and easy where food is concerned. I have that night too. For me, it’s Sunday night.

And overhead shot of this Clean Eating Loaded Sheet Pan Quesadillas shows the recipe just before the top layer of tortilla has been added. You can see the refried beans, tomatoes, onions and cilantro spread beautifully around the surface of the bottom layer of tortillas.

So I thought I would put a little more effort into bringing you some “Friday Night Recipes”. Recipes that are super easy, don’t take hours of prep and of course, are something that everyone will love.

These clean eating loaded sheet pan quesadillas are just that. Super simple and super delicious. Enjoy!

P.S. – If you’re plant based, use vegan cheese. I used the Chao brand here and they were delicious!
