CHEESEBURGER QUESADILLA
Burritoville, a local joint down by Southeast University here, specializes in some of the oddest burritos I've ever tasted. From the BBQ chicken to the Buffalo burrito, I've had them all, but they've got only one type of quesadilla. So I've decided to take one of my favorite burritos from there, the cheeseburger burrito and apply it to quesadilla form. Served with a side of fries and a Coke®, it's what I call my most recent of culinary triumphs. Serve with a side of ketchup, yellow mustard, and sweet relish.

QUESADILLA BURGERS
This is a great twist on the hamburger that everyone is sure to love! It's a combination of southwest and the classic American hamburger. I have three kids who all eat very differently from one another and this was a hit for them as well as hubby! I like to serve these with either sweet potato fries or green bean fries!

Tips:
- Use freshly grated cheese: Pre-shredded cheese contains cellulose, which can make your quesadilla gummy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you put too much filling in your quesadilla, it will be difficult to fold and cook evenly.
- Cook the quesadilla over medium heat: This will help to prevent the tortilla from burning.
- Flip the quesadilla frequently: This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Serve the quesadilla immediately: This is when it will be at its best.
