Breakfast Quesadilla

You can toss just about anything into these breakfast quesadillas! We love adding frozen peppers and onions (thawed), colby-jack cheese, and leftover chicken or tofu. ​

Makes:  4 servings

Ingredients

⅓ cup shredded cheese
4 eggs

4 whole wheat flour tortillas (6-8 inches each)

Optional: 4 Tbs salsa, vegetables of your choice (canned, fresh, or frozen),  beans (drained, rinsed)
​
Instructions
  1. Scramble eggs in a small pan over medium heat. 
  2. Put ¼ of the cheese and scrambled eggs on each tortilla.
  3. Add any veggies or beans you'd like.
  4. Heat 2 quesadillas at a time in microwave on high for 20-30 seconds or until cheese melts.
    OR
    Heat each quesadilla in a non-stick skillet for 3-4 min on medium heat.
  5. Top with salsa (if using) and fold tortilla in half to serve.​
