Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2 bell peppers, diced
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 8 tortillas
- 2 cups shredded Mexican or colby jack cheese
- toppings: sour cream, salsa, pico de gallo, guacamole, green onions (as desired)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the oil, diced onions, and peppers. Sauté for about 10 minutes or until soft.
- Add the ground beef and brown it until cooked through and no longer pink, breaking it up as it cooks.
- Meanwhile, arrange the tortillas on a baking pan, ensuring that half of the tortillas around the edges hang over the sides. Use one whole tortilla in the center to cover the entire bottom.
- Once the meat is browned, pour the mixture over the tortillas. Spread evenly.
- Sprinkle with shredded cheese, fold the tortillas over the filling, and use an additional 2-3 tortillas to cover the center of the filling.
- Place another pan on top of the quesadillas to press them down and maintain the shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove the top baking sheet. Continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
- Cut into pieces and serve with your favorite taco toppings.
