- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 red onion peeled and sliced
- 1 cup red bell peppers sliced
- 1 cup yellow bell peppers sliced
- 1 cup green bell peppers sliced
- 1/2 tsp Tabasco sauce
- 4 oz leftover grilled steak sliced
- 2 oz cheddar cheese grated
- 4 wheat tortillas
- 1/2 lime quartered

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onions and fry until softened and slightly browned in places, about 5 minutes.
Add the bell peppers and continue frying for another 8-10 minutes, until the vegetables are completely softened. Drain off any excess liquid, if necessary. Add the steak strips and season to taste with salt, pepper and Tabasco sauce.
Place one tortilla in a large dry frying pan. Add half the steak mixture and half the cheese, spreading both out to the edges.
Place another tortilla over the top and start frying over medium heat, until the cheese has melted and the tortilla is brown underneath.
Carefully flip and fry on the reverse side for another 2 minutes or so.
Turn out of the pan and repeat with the other 2 tortillas and remaining streak mix and cheese
Cut the quesadillas into wedges. Serve hot with guacamole and sour cream on the side.
