Cheesy Grilled Quesadillas
These cheesy quesadillas are fun to make and even more fun to eat – make sure to have some napkins on standby! Easily make these in the oven instead of using the grill: bake at 400° F for about 10 min, or until tortillas start to turn golden-brown.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef
- 2 cups corn kernels
- 1 bell pepper
- 1 pkg Ooey Gooey Queso Dip Mix
- 1 1⁄2 cups milk, your choice
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 6 medium flour tortillas
Preparation
- Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Meanwhile, in Round Steamer, crumble in beef. Cover; microwave on high 4 min. Once cooked, discard liquid. Use Ground Meat Separator to break up chunks of meat. Remove from steamer and place in a large bowl with corn.
- While the beef is cooking, thinly slice bell pepper.
- In same steamer (don’t wash) whisk together mix and milk. Microwave, uncovered on high for 4–5 min, whisking halfway through or until thickened. Stir in cheddar.
- Add half the sauce, about 3⁄4 cup, to beef and corn. Stir to combine.
- Divide meat mixture and peppers on one side of each tortilla. Fold tortilla over filling. Place on grill.
- Grill for 5 min, flipping halfway through, or until lightly charred.
- Serve with remaining sauce (reheat in microwave, if necessary).
