Description

The easiest way to make quesadillas for a crowd. A giant, crispy, oven-baked quesadilla stuffed with seasoned ground beef, beans, corn, and plenty of cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 8 Large Flour Tortillas
  • 3 cups Shredded Cheese
  • 1 can Black Beans
  • 1 cup Corn
  • 4 tbsp Butter (melted)
  • 1 tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin

Instructions

  1. Brown beef with onions and spices. Stir in beans and corn.
  2. Grease a baking sheet. Layer tortillas so they hang over the edges.
  3. Add half the cheese, the beef mixture, and the rest of the cheese.
  4. Fold tortillas over to seal. Brush with butter.
  5. Place a second sheet pan on top. Bake at 425°F for 20 mins.
  6. Remove top pan and bake 5 mins until golden. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Pressing: Using a second sheet pan ensures the quesadilla stays flat and gets crispy like a panini.
  • Tortillas: Use room temperature tortillas so they are pliable and don’t crack when folding.
  • Variations: Substitute beef with shredded rotisserie chicken for a faster prep.
