Cheeseburger Quesadilla

"Cheeseburger Quesadilla", "Quesadilla Cheeseburger" I may not be sure what to call this burger but regardless it's a winner! I thought of this one when I was trying to find other alternatives to bread for a cheeseburger and lettuce just wouldn't cut it. One of my favorite parts of this burger was the sauce (see below for all the details) you can add it as a topping to almost any burger or sandwich for a kicked up flavor. 



This recipe will make 4 burgers. 

What You'll Need: 
Burgers: 
1 lb ground beef (I used 95% lean) 
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon pepper 
1 glove of garlic minced 
1 tablespoon worcestershire
2/3 cup of shredded mild cheddar cheese 
8 small tortillas

Sauce: 
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 chipotle (minced) 

What To Do

In a large bowl add the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic and worcestershire sauce. Mix together and form into 4 patties and cook on the grill 5-7 minutes each side. 



While the burgers cook, make the sauce. In a small bowl add sour cream. ketchup and chipotle. Mix together until combined. 


In a large skillet heat a small amount of butter then place 1 small tortilla down and top with handful of shredded cheese until melty. Then place 1 burger on top then top the burger with sauce and second tortilla. Flip over and cook on the other side for 2 minutes. 


Let the quesadilla rest for 1 minute until slicing in half.
