Ground Beef Quesadillas Recipe

For a quick and satisfying meal, ground beef quesadillas make an excellent choice. Begin by browning 500 grams of minced beef in a large frying pan over medium heat. Once the meat is cooked through, drain any excess fat and add a finely chopped onion, a clove of crushed garlic, and a teaspoon of smoked paprika for added depth. Cook until the onions are translucent, then season with salt and pepper to taste.

Next, take large flour tortillas and generously fill one half with the beef mixture. Top it with a handful of grated cheese—cheddar or Monterey Jack works beautifully—before folding the tortilla over. Heat a bit of oil in the frying pan and cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

Slice into wedges and serve with sour cream, guacamole, or your favourite salsa for a delightful meal that’s sure to please the whole family. Enjoy!
