Instructions
- If you have leftovers, this recipe is perfect for you. Hungry for a Philly cheese steak, this one is for you, too! You will need 2 pans: one to heat up all the quesadilla innards and another clean pan to toast the quesadilla.
- In the first pan, sauté onions, peppers, and mushrooms together. If you have leftovers of these vegetables that are already cooked, you could use these instead.
- Add beef to pan, season with Worcestershire and steak seasoning. Get everything hot.
- Spread butter on one side of each tortilla. Toast the first tortilla, butter side down, until it is starting to brown.
- Place meat and vegetables on top of the tortilla, and then layer on the cheese.
- Top with the other tortilla, butter side up.
- Flip the whole stack over to brown the other tortilla. Once it is toasted to your taste, remove from heat and eat!
