Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (lean preferred)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 4 slices American cheese
- 1/2 c yellow onion, diced
- 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
Toppings
- Sliced pickles
- Shredded lettuce
Healthy Big Mac Sauce
- 1/2 c Greek yogurt, plain nonfat
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp minced dried onion
- 3 tbsp dill pickle relish
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, ketchup, Dijon mustard, dried onion, dill pickle relish, garlic powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the seasoned beef with the diced onions and seasoned salt until the beef is no longer pink and the onions are translucent. Drain any excess fat.
- Lay out the flour tortillas. On one half of each tortilla, place half a slice of American cheese
- Next, add an even layer of the cooked beef and onions. Drizzle some of the Big Mac sauce directly on top of the beef.
- Add another slice of American cheese on top of the sauce. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Place the quesadilla in the skillet, cooking until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy on one side, then flip and cook the other side until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.
- Once cooked, open the top half of the quesadilla slightly and add shredded lettuce and sliced pickles. Alternatively, you can serve them on top.
- Cut each quesadilla into slices and serve immediately with the remaining Big Mac sauce for dipping.
Notes
If you’re not a fan of sliced pickles, but still want that special taste, you can use more dill pickle relish instead.
Cook the meat to your liking. Browning it just a little longer though will give it an amazing crunch and makes the quesadilla even better.
Easily customize the quesadillas by adding in more of your favorite flavors. Bacon is always a great option.
