Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Sour cream and salsa for serving
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat. Add chopped onions, bell pepper, and taco seasoning. Cook until vegetables are tender.
- Assemble the Quesadillas: On one half of each tortilla, place a generous amount of the beef mixture and sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling.
- Cook the Quesadillas: In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas, adding more oil as needed.
- Serve: Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve hot with sour cream and salsa on the side.
