I’m here to share one of our favorite quick dinner recipes. We love any kind of quesadillas in our house but this kind is one of our favorites. My kids love pretty much anything they can dip in ketchup so this one is always a winner with them!
Cheeseburger Quesadillas
Makes 6 quesadillas
- 12 fajita sized flour tortillas (any size tortilla will work, just adjust your amount of topping and amount recipe will make)
- 1 lb ground beef or turkey
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 – 2 cups shredded cheese (we like colby jack for this)
- Toppings: our favorites are chopped dill pickle and chopped red onion. Could also do tomato, olives, etc.
- Cook ground beef/turkey and drain any grease. Add the ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce and mix well.
- Preheat skillet on medium heat or use an electric skillet preheated to 350 degrees.
- Layer shell, 1/3 cup ground beef, approx 1/4 of shredded cheese, and any topping you wish. I put a sprinkling of red onion and pickle on ours. Top with another shell.
- Cook for approximately 3 minutes or until bottom shell is crispy, then flip and cook other side for an additional 3 minutes.
- Cut with a pizza cutter and enjoy with additional ketchup or mustard to dip!
We usually serve ours with a big salad and/or a veggie. My kindergartner always requests leftovers in his lunch so they are good warmed up as leftovers or packed cold.
