Instructions:
- Cook the hamburger patty to your preferred level of doneness and season it with homemade taco seasoning. Once cooked, melt 0.5 oz of Colby Jack cheese on top of the patty.
- In a heated pan, melt a tiny amount of butter. Place one of the zero-carb tortillas in the pan, and add 0.5 oz of Colby Jack cheese on top of it. Then, spread 1.5 tablespoons of salsa and about 0.25 cup of shredded lettuce evenly over the cheese.
- Place the cooked hamburger patty on top of the tortilla with the toppings. Allow the tortilla to crisp up and the cheese to melt further.
- Once the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp, place the second tortilla on top of the hamburger patty.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla cheeseburger over in the pan so that the cheese on the hamburger patty holds the tortilla in place. Allow the second tortilla to crisp up as well.
- Once both sides are crispy and the cheese is fully melted, remove the quesadilla cheeseburger from the pan.
- Serve the quesadilla cheeseburger hot with optional sides like guacamole and raw cauliflower.
