Ingredients
- 6 flour tortillas
- 2 cups Mexican cheese
- 1 tbsp oil olive or avocado
- 1/2 large bell pepper diced
- 1/2 medium onion diced
- 1 lb steak cooked, cut into cubes
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet with oil over medium heat. Add in the diced bell pepper and onion and sauté them for another 5 minutes or until veggies soften.
- Add the sliced, precooked steak to the veggies and toss until golden. Set the steak and veggie mixture aside.
- Into a clean skillet, add a bit of butter and place a tortilla on top. On half of the tortilla, add the cheese, steak mixture, and more cheese. Fold the tortilla over.
- Once the tortilla is golden, flip it over and cook for a few more minutes until the other side is also golden. Repeat the same steps with the rest of quesadillas.
- Serve while the quesadillas are still warm and the cheese is melty. Enjoy!
