How to make it, step by step

1. Cook the rice in plenty of salted water according to the package (about 15 minutes). Drain and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and sauté it in a nonstick skillet with no oil (or just a few drops) over medium heat for 3 minutes.
3. Add the lean ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and brown it, stirring, for 6-7 minutes until no longer pink. Add the drained corn and sauté for 1 more minute.
4. Spoon the filling onto two tortillas, sprinkle with the shredded cheese, fold into half-moons, and brown them in the skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until the cheese melts.
5. Serve each quesadilla cut in half with the white rice on the side.
