Cheesy ground beef quesadillas are a mouthwatering delight, perfect for a quick meal or a satisfying snack.
To make the ultimate version, start by browning ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, seasoning it with a blend of salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, and garlic powder for a bold, savory flavor.
Next, warm a large flour tortilla in a pan, then sprinkle a generous layer of shredded cheese, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a Mexican blend, over half of the tortilla.
Add a portion of the seasoned ground beef on top, followed by optional ingredients like sautéed onions, bell peppers, or a dash of hot sauce for an extra kick.
Flip carefully and cook the other side, pressing gently to create a deliciously gooey interior with a crispy exterior.
Once done, transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board and let it rest for a minute before slicing into triangles.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces such as sour cream, guacamole, or salsa for an added burst of flavor.
For variations, try adding refried beans, jalapeños, or a drizzle of chipotle sauce to customize your quesadilla to your taste.
