Beef and Shrimp Quesadilla

Quesadilla is a very well known and popular Mexican dish. It can be done any style, hence why it is so versatile. Whether you are vegan, gluten-free, pescatarian, vegetarian or whatever the case maybe there will be a quesadilla out there for you. 

You are welcome to add different colors of bell peppers to brighten its look and flavor. 

You can add black beans or replace the tomato with black beans if you prefer. 

You can also use a different kind of cheese if you like. However, I love the Mexican Taco Blend Cheese. 

Gluten sensitivity: Purchase gluten-free tortilla. 

Keto: Sub for keto wraps.

Vegetarians: Sub meat/seafood with black beans, corn, avocados, or mushrooms. 

You can’t go wrong.

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Preparing the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the beef while adding either the taco season mix or your own seasoning (paprika, salt, black pepper, cayenne, garlic powder, and cumin) and cook until beef is tender. Then add diced onions, cook this until the onions are translucent.
  • Preparing the shrimp: In another small skillet add oil on medium heat. Then place the shrimp in the skillet and add the season salt and black pepper. Cook for 4 mins. Do not overcook the shrimp. Note: if your package of shrimp is already cooked just toss it in the pan for 2 mins.
  • In a non-stick pan add flour tortilla. Note: you do not need to add oil unless your pan is non-stick. On one half of the tortilla add half of the cooked beef, then sprinkle half of the diced tomatoes and green peppers, then sprinkle half the Mexican taco cheese on top. (Be generous if you like it extra cheesy)
  • Fold the tortilla and flip on each side until the cheese is melted and each side is brown. Repeat the process with the remaining tortilla.
  • Cut the quesadillas in half and serve as you desire.

It brings me such sadness to let you all know that It brings me such sadness to let you all know that our dearly beloved Marley has left us. I tried so hard to hold back tears as I come to grips that she has departed. They say a Dog is mans best friend and surely Marley was more than just a Dog and a “best friend” she was one of us, she was FAMILY.

If you watched my recipe videos on my stories while I was home in Jamaica you would on most occasion hear Marley barking in the background. My Marley was always there ready to sample every and anything I made. 

We love you Marley 💜❤️🧡💛💚💙
My version of a Miso Ramen with Chashu Pork. I lov My version of a Miso Ramen with Chashu Pork. I loved it and loved making it.

Food for me is more than what meets the eye and fills the stomach. Food is not just nutrition but for me it's LOVE it’s FAMILY it's LAUGHTER it's JOY and TOGETHERNESS. It is amazing how food can conquer by bringing the farthest of people close, and bring “HOPE” for many people across the world. it's an “INSPIRATION” that brings comfort to some to live another day. 

Without integration and fusion I would have never experience and love Curry the way I do, thanks to our Indian ancestors. I would have never imagine the world of Jerk if it wasn’t for our Amerindian ancestors and I would have never understood the purpose of Soy Sauce in dishes if it wasn’t for my Chinese ancestors. 

So lately, when I see “recipe shaming” as how I would like to put it. It brings the question? Are we not allowed to show love and adoration for our brothers and sisters across borders without the thought of exploitation, race snd appropriation? When did food become such a sensitive topic?
