Description

A crispy, cheesy fusion of a cheeseburger and quesadilla — quick, affordable, and crowd-pleasing.


Ingredients

Scale

1 pound lean ground beef

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

½ cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons onion, grated

2 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon pickle relish

2 teaspoons yellow mustard

1 teaspoon white vinegar

¼ teaspoon paprika

4 burrito-sized flour tortillas

16 slices cheddar cheese, thinly sliced

½ cup onion, finely chopped

½ cup dill pickles, chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil


Instructions

1. Combine mayonnaise, grated onion, ketchup, relish, mustard, vinegar, and paprika. Refrigerate.

2. Cook ground beef until browned, then season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire.

3. Lay tortillas; add cheese, beef, onions, pickles, more cheese, then fold.

4. Cook each quesadilla with olive oil 2–3 minutes per side until golden.

5. Cut into triangles and serve with burger sauce.

Notes

Use lean beef for less grease. For extra crunch, toast both sides well. Sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance.
