Tips:
- Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese will give you the best flavor. You can also use a blend of cheeses, such as cheddar and mozzarella.
- Cook the ground beef until it is browned: This will help to develop the flavor of the beef and prevent it from being greasy.
- Season the ground beef with your favorite spices: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices.
- Use a large skillet or griddle: This will help to prevent the quesadillas from sticking and will make it easier to flip them.
- Cook the quesadillas over medium heat: This will help to prevent the tortillas from burning.
- Serve the quesadillas with your favorite toppings: Guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and chopped cilantro are all popular choices.
