Steps:
- Add the beef, creole seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder and black pepper to a pan and brown the meat until fully cooked.

- Sprinkle one tablespoon of feta on each tortilla, on top of the pepper jack.
- Evenly divide the beef among the four tortillas, on top of the cheeses.
- Spray a frying pan with non-stick cooking spray. Fold each tortilla in half and fry on medium-high heat, flipping until both sides are golden brown (about 2-3 minutes on each side).
- Cut in half and serve with sour cream.

EASY PEPPER JACK CHEESE QUESADILLAS
These quesadillas are quick to assemble and delicious! They are filled with pepperjack cheese and tomatoes. I made these to serve along side my Easy Tex-Mex Tomato Soup, but they could also be served as an appetizer or a small lunch or snack.

Steps:
- To assemble quesadilla, place one tortilla on a dinner plate. Arrange sliced cheese atop tortilla, leaving at least 1/2 inch space from the edge of the tortilla. Arrange sliced tomatoes atop cheese layer followed by another layer of cheese (remaining). Top with remaining tortilla.
- While assembling the quesadillas, preheat an electric griddle to 350 F (or grill to medium-high heat). I use a griddle (rather than a grill) to cook quesadillas, as it is easier to turn them without losing their insides.
- Brush 1 tbs. olive oil onto the griddle, covering the surface. Brush the remaining 1 tbs. olive oil onto the top exposed tortilla. Gently slide the quesadilla from the dinner plate onto the griddle (olive oil-less side down).
- Cook for 5-7 minutes or until bottom tortilla begins to brown. With a large spatula, gently but swiftly turn quesadilla to brown other side. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until bottom tortilla begins to brown. Remove to a cutting board and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
- Slice into quarters and serve immediately with garnish of your preference. I like to use sour cream, salsa or guacamole. For this particular recipe, I served it with my Easy Tex-Mex Tomato Soup.
