Quesadilla Burgers image

The concept of using quesadillas as a bun is genius. They add a cheesy crunch to the delicious burger. The meat itself is moist and full of taco flavor. The fresh pico on top is a burst of flavor while the ooey gooey pepper jack cheese is perfection. These are definitely decadent... and delicious!

I'm not a big fan of quesadillas, but these burgers were actually really good. The quesadilla adds a nice crispy texture and the burger is cooked perfectly.

These burgers were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I loved the idea of these quesadilla burgers, but I found them to be a bit too greasy. I think I would try them again with leaner ground beef.
