Add the onions and peppers, and saute until starting to soften, about 4-5 minutes.

Add the ground beef, cook until browned, then season with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Drain any excess oil from the pan and transfer the beef to a plate or bowl; wipe out the skillet.

Line up your tortillas on a large work surface, or, if you're short on space, just do them one at a time.

Spread about 1/2 cup of freshly shredded Mexican blend cheese on each tortilla, covering the entire surface.

Divide the seasoned ground beef evenly between the tortillas, spreading it on one half of each tortilla.

Melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter in the skillet and place the tortilla face-up in the center.

Cook on medium heat until well browned, then use a spatula to fold the cheese-only side over the beef side.

Press down slightly to get the cheeses to melt together.

Remove from the skillet and place on a wire rack in a 200 degree F oven to keep warm.

Repeat with remaining quesadillas, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
