Description

This quesadilla burgers recipe combines tortillas, cheese, hamburger patties, and a creamy Southwest sauce. Serve with sweet potato or green bean fries.

Ingredients

1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup ranch dressing
1/4 cup taco sauce
4 (4 ounce) hamburger patties
1 dash Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
8 flour tortillas
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese
1/2 head lettuce, shredded, or to taste
3 tablespoons picante sauce, or to taste

Directions

1 Combine sour cream, ranch dressing, and taco sauce in a bowl until smooth. Cover Southwest sauce; refrigerate for flavors to blend.
2 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
3 Cook hamburger patties on the preheated grill for 5 minutes, seasoning with Worcestershire sauce. Flip patties and arrange tortillas on grill; reduce heat under tortillas to medium-low. Top tortillas with Cheddar cheese and Colby-Jack cheese. Continue cooking patties until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Cook tortillas until cheeses melt, 2 to 4 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into patty centers should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
4 Spread Southwest sauce onto 4 tortillas, cheese-sides up; top each with lettuce, picante sauce, and 1 patty. Top with remaining tortillas, cheese-sides down.
