Cheeseburger Quesadillas with dipping sauce

For today’s recipe, I took my healthy big mac salad recipe and converted it into cheeseburger quesadillas with dipping sauce. Basically I took the lettuce and swapped it for a tortilla!
This is a tasty variation. It starts with that famous sauce. Instead of using for a dressing, it becomes the perfect dipping sauce for the cheeseburger quesadillas. It’s made from mayo, dill pickle relish, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and a little vinegar. Mix that all together and place it in the refrigerator while you prepare the quesadillas.
Now, the next step is the beef for the quesadillas. Cook the ground beef in a skillet with some onion until fully browned. Once that is cooked, drain off any excess grease. Then mix in some salic powder, salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes to get those spices combined with the meat.
Next, it’s time to make the quesadillas. Start with some butter melted in the skillet. Place one of the tortillas in there. Top the tortilla with a layer of the cheese followed with a layer of the beef. Finish it off with another tortilla. Cook until it’s nice and golden, then flip. Finish with this process until all the quesadillas are made. Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges and serve with the dipping sauce.
