Black Bean Quesadillas

1# black beans, soaked overnight
1 C. roasted corn kernels, Trader Joe's has it in their frozen section
8oz. mixed grated "taco cheese"
1 C. chopped white onions
1 1/4 C. chopped cilantro, divided
8 (10") flour tortillas
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 large tomatoes, quartered
2 Tbsp. hot sauce

Heat grill to medium high.  This can also be done in a large skillet or on a flattop range.
In a bowl toss together beans, corn, cheese, 3/4 cup cilantro and 1/2 cup onions.  Divide mixture evenly over half of each tortilla, then fold tortillas in half.  Brush oil onto cooking surface, then cook the quesadillas, turning once until golden and cheese is meted, about 2 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, pulse tomatoes, hot sauce, salt and pepper to taste, remaining onions, and cilantro in a food processor until coarsely chopped.  Serve quesadillas with salsa and Enjoy!
