  • I recommend using lean beef or draining the excess grease off when you’re done cooking the meat, so that your quesadillas don’t get soggy.
  • I suggest you to fold it in a half, I’ve tried before with flip the whole darn thing at one time. Fillings always exploded. Just, step by step do not be in hurry!
