About This Recipe
Quesadillas are one of the easiest recipes on the planet, but they are so satisfying. You can make quesadillas out of just about anything, as long as you have some tortillas and a pan.
This recipe was made using leftover grilled steak, but you can use any type of cooked meat. The meat does have to be cooked, because the quesadilla’s interior will not get hot enough during grilling to cook the meat.
I prefer using Cheddar or Colby cheese to make this recipe, but you can use Swiss, Havarti, provolone, or even mozzarella or American cheese.
Do slice the steak thinly, so it will heat up as the quesadilla toasts. And enjoy this great recipe with salsa, ketchup, mustard, or any dipping sauce.
