- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon your favorite BBQ sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush or spray a baking sheet with olive oil so it’s coated for the tortillas.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey or beef with a big pinch of salt and pepper and cook until browned, breaking it apart into small crumbles. Stir in the ketchup and mustard until combined. Turn off the heat and add in a sprinkle of cheese - just an ounce or two.
- To make the quesadillas, place a tortilla on the baking sheet and fill one side with a sprinkling of cheese, some of the beef mixture and another sprinkling of cheese. Place a tortilla on top and brush/spray that top side with olive oil. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. I usually make 2 large quesadillas - sometimes 3. You can add as much beef as you’d like.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Gently flip and bake for 8 minutes more.
- To serve, top with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, pickled onions and a big drizzle of the house sauce.
