Tesla is probably just looking for something that might be tastier - many dogs will still seek out food even if they have just had plenty to eat. Some dogs also like to play with paper or plastic that is in the trash. The best way to curb this behavior is to restrict access - make sure there is no food left unattended within her reach and put the trash can in a cabinet or purchase one with a locking lid.
