Ingredients
– 4 medium-sized tortillas
– 2 cups of shredded cheese (cheddar, Mexican blend, or your preferred cheese)
– 2 eggs
– 2 tablespoons of butter
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional fillings (cooked bacon, chopped ham, sausage, onions, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, jalapenos, avocado, salsa, and sour cream)
Instructions
1. Preheat a large skillet on low heat.
2. Crack two eggs into a small bowl and whisk together with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Cut the vegetables and cook the meat that you would like to use as a filling. Once cooked, set aside.
4. Place a tortilla on the skillet and sprinkle one cup of cheese evenly over the tortilla.
5. Add your fillings (cooked bacon, ham, sausage, onions, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, jalapenos, avocado, salsa, and sour cream) on top of the cheese.
6. Pour the whisked eggs on top of the fillings.
7. Sprinkle another cup of cheese over the fillings and eggs.
8. Place the second tortilla on top of the cheese.
9. Cook the quesadilla on low heat until the tortilla is crispy and golden brown. This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
10. Repeat the same process for the remaining three tortillas.
11. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve warm.
