Quesadilla Burgers

We decided to make this as taco meat instead of patties.  Still, very delicious.  Gives a variety to tacos.  I used our Mom's Favorite Taco Seasoning rather than a packet.

Ingredients:


1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
3/4 c Corn Black Bean Salsa, divided
3/4 (1.25 oz) pkt taco seasoning (3 Tbsp), divided
1 tsp Garlic Garlic Seasoning
6 slices pepper jack or Monterey Jack cheese
6 (6-inch) flour tortillas, warmed
1/2 c sour cream
shredded lettuce, tomato slices

Instructions:

1.  In large bowl, combine ground beef, 1/2 cup Corn, Black Bean Salsa, 2 tablespoons taco seasoning and Garlic Garlic Seasoning.  Form into 6 oblong patties.

2.  Prepare grill to medium heat.  Place patties on grill.  Grill, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read food thermometer, about 8-10 minutes.  Top with cheese.

3.  Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine sour cream, remaining 1/4 cup Corn, Black Bean Salsa, and remaining 1 tablespoon taco seasoning.  Spread on tortillas.  Top with burgers, lettuce and tomatoes.

Makes 6 servings.  Serve with chips and remaining Corn, Black Bean Salsa.

Make Ahead & Freeze:  Prepare step 1.  Place patties in a gallon freezer bag between sheets of wax paper.  Place remaining Corn, black Bean salsa and taco seasoning in a quart freezer bag.  Place both bags in a gallon freezer bag.  Seal well, label and freeze.  Thaw completely.  Continue with step 2.
