My husband met his favorite THM-friendly meal when I served him these Quick Steak & Cheese Quesadillas last week.

“Wow. These are incredible. Amazing. I don’t even know what other words to use. They are….just….wow.”

“Can I quote you on the blog.”

“Yup.”

Ridiculously easy and made with no special ingredients, these Quick Steak & Cheese Quesadillas are the perfect meal for a busy week night. What could be better than a butter-fried low-carb wrap stuffed with thinly sliced roast beef (or use leftover cooked steak strips, if you have that on hand), provolone cheese, and sauted mixture of green peppers, onions, and mushrooms dipped into a perfectly tempered sauce made from Greek yogurt, mayo, and horseradish?!

According to my hubby, not much.

To keep this meal an S fuel, limit yourself to two quesadillas (which I found plenty filling!), or the equivalent of one low-carb wrap. More than that will put you into S helper or Crossover mode – great fuels for men, growing children,  pregnant or nursing mothers, diabetics, and those who are already at goal weight.

Prefer chicken quesadillas? Try these on for size. Different, but equally delicious!
