🥓🧀 Keto Cheeseburger Quesadillas

A low-carb twist on a cheeseburger, using a crispy cheese “tortilla” instead of traditional tortillas.

Ingredients

• 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 4 slices cheddar or American cheese
• 2 tbsp sugar-free ketchup
• 1 tbsp yellow mustard
• ¼ cup diced pickles
• Optional: diced onions, lettuce, or burger sauce

Instructions

1. Cook the Beef
   • Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat.
   • Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
   • Drain excess fat if needed.
2. Make the Cheese Shells
   • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
   • Create four circles using about ¼ cup shredded cheddar each.
   • Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5–7 minutes, until melted and lightly golden.
   • Let cool for 1–2 minutes so they become flexible.
3. Assemble
   • Place beef on one half of each cheese shell.
   • Add a slice of cheese, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.
   • Fold over to form a quesadilla shape.
4. Crisp Them Up
   • Return to a skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes per side until crispy and the cheese inside melts.

Optional Burger Sauce

• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp sugar-free ketchup
• 1 tsp mustard
