Description

Delicious quesadillas filled with seasoned ground beef and melted cheese, perfect for gatherings and easy to prepare.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • Garlic powder (to taste)
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or American cheese
  • Optional: pickles, diced onions, burger sauce for serving


Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
  2. Press a small handful of ground beef directly onto one half of each tortilla, ensuring good coverage. Season well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Cook beef side down for 2–3 minutes until browned.
  4. Flip the tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, then fold in half.
  5. Grill both sides until crispy and melty, allowing the cheese to fully melt and bind the quesadilla.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding diced vegetables like onions or peppers. Pair with custom salsas for a fresh kick.
