My mom and dad visited a friend in Texas, and he made "tacos" this way. It's how I've prepared them for my loved ones ever since.

Ingredients

  1. 1 lblean ground beef
  2. 1 packageEl Paso taco seasoning
  3. 1/2 cupyour favorite salsa
  4. 1 packageten-inch flour tortillas
  5. 1 packageyour favorite pepper jack cheese
  6. Vegetable oil for frying
  7. Shredded sharp cheddar, sour cream, your favorite taco toppings

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the ground beef and drain. Add 2/3 cup of water and seasoning packet. In other words, cook according to directions on the packet.

  2. 2

    Add salsa. Cook through on low heat. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    Slice pepper jack cheese into three 1/4 inch slices per taco. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Add vegetable oil to a wide frying pan. Heat until a small corner of a tortilla comes out slightly browned.

  5. 5

    Place three slices of pepper jack on the bottom half of a tortilla. I break the slices apart to cover more surface area. Fold tortilla in half as evenly as possible. Drop into oil very carefully.

  6. 6

    Use tongs to carefully push any bubbles down,and rotate tortilla in the oil. Use tongs to gently flip tortilla,and lightly brown both sides. *Cheese will likely seep out, but that's okay. Fried cheese is a good thing.

  7. 7

    Drain tortilla on a plate covered in paper towels. Don't press down too much on the tortilla, you'll squeeze out all of the cheese, and ruin everyone's good time.

  8. 8

    Add seasoned meat, shredded cheese, and any desired toppings on the top of your beautiful, fried quesadilla.

  9. 9

    Eat, and wonder how you ever lived without this dish in your life. Love you!
