Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked ground beef
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced pickles
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 flour tortillas 8-inch size
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the cooked ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir until heated through, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Remove the beef mixture from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium heat.
  3. Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the tortilla.
  4. Add 1/4 cup of the beef mixture, followed by a sprinkle of diced onions, tomatoes, and pickles. Top with another 1/4 cup of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
  5. Place a second tortilla on top and press down gently. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melting.
  6. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a large spatula and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and crispy.
  7. Remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute before slicing into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
