About Quesabirria

Quesabirria is a Mexican dish that blends the flavors of birria, a savory stewed meat typically made with beef or goat, and the cheesy goodness of a quesadilla. Originating from Jalisco, Mexico, this popular creation features tortillas filled with shredded birria meat, melted cheese, and a medley of spices, then pan-fried to crispy perfection. Often served with a flavorful consommé for dipping, quesabirria offers an indulgent, hearty eating experience. While rich in protein from the meat and calcium from the cheese, it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, making it a dish best enjoyed in moderation. Pairing quesabirria with fresh vegetables or a light salad can help balance its nutritional profile while still savoring its bold, comforting flavors.
