Ingredients

Scale

  • ½–¾ lb ground beef (80/20)

  • ½ small onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 2 flour tortillas (8-inch)

  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter

  • Salt & pepper

Smash Sauce:

  • ¼ cup mayo

  • 1 tbsp ketchup

  • 1 tsp mustard

  • 1 tsp pickle juice

  • Pinch garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  • Make burger sauce and chill.

  • Sauté onions until soft. Set aside.

  • Divide beef into 4 small balls. Smash and cook in a hot skillet until crisp and browned. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Spread sauce on half of each tortilla. Layer cheese, beef, onions, pickles (optional), and more cheese. Fold in half.

  • Cook quesadillas in a skillet until golden and crispy on both sides.

Notes

  • Use plant-based beef for a vegan version.

  • Don’t overfill to avoid tearing tortillas.
