Hamburger Quesadillas

Are you looking for a simple and delicious dinner?  Then you have to try this Hamburger Quesadillas recipe.  Imagine taking a bite of a delicious mix of ground beef, melting cheese, black beans, corn, green peppers, and onions.  The simple flavors blend so well together! It’s hard to stop eating after taking one bite.  One reason I like this recipe is it provides me with an opportunity to have some healthy corn and beans hidden in it so my daughter doesn’t notice as she is dipping them in salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.  I usually have all of the ingredients for this recipe in my cupboard and freezer, and I’m guessing you may too.  So let’s get started on this weeknight favorite.

First brown the hamburger.

Then chop up the onion and green pepper.

When the hamburger is brown, drain off the excess fat and add in the onion and green pepper.

Next add the 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, and  1 1/2 teaspoons of chili powder. Then drain the corn and add it to the ground beef.

Then drain and rinse the can of black beans and add them to the ground beef.

Now warm the mixture over medium heat until it is fully heated.  Then get out a large pan and put your tortilla in it and cover it with shredded cheddar cheese.

Cover one half with the hamburger mixture.

Fold over and heat first side a couple of minutes until it is lightly browned.  Then flip it over and brown the other side.

 Now cut it into four triangles and serve with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
