Lightly mash beans in a medium bowl. (NOTE: It's okay if some beans remain whole.) Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Combine sour cream, 1 tsp (2 tsp) Mexican Seasoning, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.Add tomatoes, half the lime zest, half the lime juice and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to another medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 min. Add kale and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Cook, stirring often, until kale is tender, 5-6 min.
Add garlic, beans and remaining Mexican Seasoning to the same pan. Cook, stirring often, until garlic is fragrant and beans are warmed through, 1-2 min. Stir in remaining lime zest and remaining lime juice. Transfer bean filling back into the same medium bowl (from step 1). Season with salt and pepper, to taste.Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Arrange tortillas on a clean surface.Spread bean filling over one side of each tortilla. Sprinkle cheese over filling. Fold tortillas in half to enclose filling. Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then 3 quesadillas. Cook until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
