These Cheeseburger Quesadillas are one of my go-to weeknight dinners. Perfect for anyone who loves cheeseburgers and quesadillas and is looking for an easy meal to make. Plus this recipe is gluten-free and great for kids too.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheeseburger quesadillas:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • 8 flour tortillas (I used almond flour ones)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, American, your favorite!)
  • Topping ideas: dill pickle chips, avocado slices, lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, anything you’d like

Special sauce:

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise 
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons sweet relish
  • 1 tablespoon mustard

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the special sauce ingredients in bowl and set aside
  2. Next lay out each tortilla and sprinkle cheese on top of each
  3. Then season beef with salt and pepper and form into 4 patties (about the size of the tortilla if possible)
  4. Preheat large skillet over medium heat and add a little oil
  5. Add patties to skillet and cook burgers on each side until burgers reach desired temperature (as burgers cook – prepare toppings)
  6. Drain burger juice out of skillet then add the almond flour tortillas (I did 2 at a time since that is all that fit)
  7. Cook over medium-high heat until tortillas are crisp and cheese is melted
  8. Remove tortillas from heat then add burger on top of one then add desired toppings, special sauce and the other cheesy tortilla
  9. Repeat with remaining ingredients and enjoy warm!

Notes

*Store leftovers in fridge for 3 days. These do taste best fresh though!
