Philly Cheesesteak Quesadillas

Last night we ate the best quesadillas of our life. I promise I am not exaggerating! They were that good. So good that I plan on making me one for lunch too. So, it is only fair that I share all this goodness with you. Enjoy!






Ingredients:
Tortillas
¼ green pepper, sliced
⅛ onion, sliced
Butter (divided)
Deli roast beef lunch meet
Shredded Fiesta Cheese
Kraft Queso Blanco shredded cheese


Instructions:

Melt one tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium high heat. Add sliced onions and peppers. Saute until tender crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.

Melt remaining tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add one tortilla shell.
Sprinkle cheddar cheese on half of tortilla shell.
Layer roast beef over cheddar cheese.
Sprinkle pepper jack cheese over roast beef.
Set peppers and onions on top of pepper jack cheese layer.
Sprinkle with Swiss cheese layer.
Fold other half of tortilla shell on top of cheese.
Continue to cook until bottom of tortilla shell is golden brown. Carefully flip and cook until the other side of the tortilla is golden brown. Remove from skillet. Let set for a few minutes and cut into wedges!


Tip: These cook REALLY fast. By the time I had added all the layers it was time to flip the quesadilla so the tortilla did not burn.
