Quesadillas are one of my go-to recipes when I want to get a meal on the table fast, and these beef quesadillas are always popular with the kids. Although this recipe calls for deli roast beef, you can also make it with leftover pot roast, beef stew or flank steak. Just cut the meat into thin, bite-sized pieces.
Like spicy food? Add a few jarred jalapeno peppers on top of the cheese.
