Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • Tortillas As many as you need to feed your crew. I did the full-size burrito tortillas and cut them into 6 quesadilla slices. Each guy got 4 slices and they said it was plenty.
  • Corned Beef I used approximately ¼ lb of lunchmeat-style corned beef per full-size quesadilla
  • Sauerkrat One 12 oz can was enough for 6 full quesadillas
  • Swiss Cheese One pound shredded was enough for the 6 full quesadillas
  • Mexican Blend White Melting Cheese I always buy a big bag of this and don’t know exactly how much I used. You can never have too much cheese.
  • Thousand Island Dressing 1 bottle to drizzle inside quesadillas. I only used a partial bottle.

Method
 

  1. Take one of the large burrito tortillas and place it in the bottom of a cast iron skillet. I used avocado oil to coat the bottom of the skillet.
  2. Layer on a good amount of shredded swiss cheese.
  3. Layer corned beef lunch meat
  4. Light layer of sauerkraut
  5. Light drizzle of Thousand Island dressing, or the amount to your liking
  6. Another lighter layer of the corned beef lunch meat
  7. Add a layer of Mexican melting cheese blend
  8. Top with another burrito-sized tortilla
  9. Cook in the skillet until the bottom tortilla is golden brown
  10. Flip the quesadilla and cook on the other side until golden brown
  11. Cut into slices and serve!
