Bacon Cheddar Ranch Quesadilla (Printable Version)

Bold cheddar, ranch, and bacon meet crisp veggies in a 20-minute stovetop meal bursting with melty goodness.

# What You'll Need:

→ Quesadillas

01 - 1 tablespoon ranch dressing
02 - 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon
03 - 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
04 - 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
05 - 1 flour tortilla

→ Toppings for Serving

06 - 1/3 cup diced tomatoes
07 - 1/2 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Put your quesadilla wedges on a plate. Layer the shredded lettuce and sprinkle over the diced tomatoes. Grab some extra ranch if you want more for dipping and eat right away.
02 - Slide the quesadilla onto a board. Give it a minute so it isn’t too hot, then slice into easy pieces.
03 - Gently turn your quesadilla over and let the other side get browned while the cheesy insides go gooey, about 2 to 3 more minutes.
04 - Let your tortilla hang out in the pan until it's a nice toasty brown on the bottom and the cheese looks melty, which should take around 2 or 3 minutes.
05 - Lay the tortilla in your pan. Sprinkle on the cheddar, drop the bacon all around, and finish with a ranch drizzle.
06 - Set a nonstick skillet over medium heat and toss in butter. Wait for it to get bubbly.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Want more protein? Toss in some cooked chicken—shredded or sliced both work. Leftover grilled chicken mixes in great.
