Beef Stew Quesadilla?? Yeah, you heard right. I made a big batch of my family traditional beef stew this past week, then a few days later, my son asked if I could make him a “beef stew quesadilla.” It’s all his fault!
It turned out to be brain-dead simple, and we’ve had it for dinner 3 times this week! All you do is fish out some chunks of beef, smash them (basically shredding them) and put the beef in a classic cheese quesadilla, dribbling a little bit of the sauce on top of the beef. I also topped the shredded beef with diced green chiles – yum!
You can use
my family’s favorite beef stew recipe – handed down for generations – or really any beef stew will do. This beef stew freezes very well, so now I can pull some out of the freezer and in no time serve either beef stew or beef stew quesadillas!
