Equipment

Ingredients
  

Quesadillas

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • ½ tsp seasoning salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • ¼ cup yellow mustard
  • cups cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 cup dill pickles finely chopped
  • 1 cup white or yellow onion finely chopped
  • 8 flour tortillas

Homemade Burger Sauce

  • ½ cup mayo
  • 2 T ketchup
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • 1 tsp pickle juice
  • 2 T white or yellow onion finely chopped
  • 1 T dill pickles finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound ground beef and cook until browned. Drain access fat and season with 1/2t seasoning salt and 1/2t of black pepper. Stir in 1/2 c ketchup and 1/4 c yellow mustard.
  • Spray a fry pan with cooking spray. Turn burner to medium heat, and lay a tortilla in pan. Top with a scoop of the meat mixture followed by shredded cheddar, chopped pickles and chopped onions. Lay another tortilla on top. Cook each side of quesadilla approx 2-3, flipping frequently to avoid burning. Note: This recipe makes 4 full quesadillas. I make them one at a time in a fry pan, but you can use a large electric skillet to make all 4 at one time.
  • Transfer to a plate and let them sit for a 1-2 minutes before cutting. Use a pizza cutter to slice into 4 equal pieces.
  • To make the burger dipping sauce, combine 1/2 c mayo and 2 T of ketchup, 1 teaspoon vinegar, 1 teaspoon pickle juice, 2 T chopped dill pickles, and 1 T chopped onion. Stir until well combined.
  • Serve quesadillas warm along side dipping sauce.
