2.Add tomatoes then salsa, beans and chickpeas to pan; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until thickened. Season to taste.
3.To make quesadillas; divide the cheddar between two tortillas; top with remaining tortillas, pressing firmly to seal. Brush tortillas lightly with butter. Cook separately in a heated sandwich press until browned and cheese is melted. Cut each quesadilla into quarters. Serve chilli with quesadillas.

If you have some, add â…“ cup loosely packed fresh coriander leaves (cilantro) to the chilli con carne just before serving. Chilli can be refrigerated for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
