Description

Delightful quesadillas combining the rich flavors of Mississippi pot roast with crispy tortillas and melted cheese. Perfect for family meals or casual gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded Mississippi pot roast
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced peppers (bell or jalapeño)
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Sour cream for serving
  • Salsa for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil to coat the skillet.
  2. Place one tortilla in the skillet and layer half of it with 1 cup of shredded pot roast, followed by 1/2 cup of cheese, and sprinkle with diced peppers and onions.
  3. Top with another tortilla and cook until the bottom is crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side until crispy and cheese is melted, another 3-4 minutes. Remove and repeat with remaining ingredients.
  5. Cut quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with sour cream and salsa.

Notes

Don’t overstuff the quesadillas to make flipping easier. Consider adding fresh herbs for extra flavor.
