One-pan cheesy ground beef quesadillas are the perfect quick and delicious dinner solution for busy nights.
Packed with savory flavors, gooey cheese, and a crispy tortilla shell, this dish requires minimal prep and cleanup, making it a go-to meal for families and individuals alike.
To start, brown a pound of ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Season the meat with a mix of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper for a bold and slightly spicy flavor.
Once the beef is fully cooked, drain any excess grease and stir in a handful of chopped onions and bell peppers, allowing them to soften and absorb the delicious seasonings.
Next, remove the beef mixture from the skillet and wipe it clean before heating a flour tortilla over low heat.
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over one half of the tortilla, then spoon the beef mixture on top.
Fold the tortilla in half and press it down lightly with a spatula, allowing the cheese to melt and bind everything together.
