Ingredients:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 8 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage or bacon
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or butter for the pan
  • Instructions:
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage or bacon until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add a bit of cooking spray or butter. Saute the diced bell peppers and onions until they are softened.
  • Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the bell peppers and onions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and fully cooked.
  • Place a tortilla in a separate skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle a portion of shredded cheddar cheese on one half of the tortilla.
  • Add a portion of the cooked eggs, followed by a portion of the cooked sausage or bacon. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro if desired.
  • Fold the tortilla in half, creating a half-moon shape. Press down gently with a spatula and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side until it’s also golden brown.
  • Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Once all quesadillas are cooked, slice them into wedges and serve hot.
