INGREDIENTS
Cheese Sauce
- 🧈 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 🥛 ¾ cup milk
- 🧀 ⅓ cup grated provolone cheese
- 🧂 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground white pepper
Beef Filling
- ½ pound ground beef
- 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic granules
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 🧅 ½ medium thinly sliced onion
Assembly
- 🌮 4 (7 inch) tortillas
STEPS
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour until well incorporated.
Slowly pour in milk, whisking constantly, until mixture is smooth. Add provolone cheese, salt, and white pepper and whisk well until cheese has melted and sauce is smooth. Set aside.
Meanwhile, cook ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until lightly browned. Season with salt, garlic granules, and pepper. Add onions and cook until soft and translucent and ground beef is browned.
Drain off residual fat. Stir the ground beef mixture into the cheese sauce.
Lay a tortilla into a nonstick skillet. Add some of the ground beef mixture to half of the tortilla. Fold the other side of the tortilla over to sandwich filling together.
Cook until tortilla is browned on each side, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Remove quesadilla and cut into wedges. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Serve immediately.
