Quesadilla Burger

    • 2 (10 inch) flour tortillas
    • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
    • 1/3 cup shredded monterey jack pepper cheese
    • 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • diced onions

    Southwest Seasoning mix for burgers

    • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
    • 2 tablespoons paprika
    • 1 teaspoon black pepper
    • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • crushed red pepper flakes ( to taste)
    • 1 teaspoon salt ( I didnt measure)
    • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
      For burgers: combine all seasoning ingredrients. Use one heaping Tblsp of seasoning mix per pound of hamburger meat. Mix into hamburger meat until well combined. Fry or grill.Assemble: Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Spread butter on one side of each tortilla. Put one tortilla, butter side down in the hot pan. Sprinkle the cheeses evenly onto the center of the tortilla in the pan- but not all the way to the edges. Put the tomato, onion, bacon and jalapeno over the cheese, add the cooked seasoned burger and cover with the other tortilla butter side up (like a grilled cheese sandwhich). When the bottom is browned, about 45-90 seconds, flip the quesadilla and grill the other side. Remove the quesidilla from the pan and using a pizza cutter, cut throught the middle. Se
