Scrambled Egg Quesadillas

Submitted by Geema

"I had some flour tortillas to use up one day and decided to make some breakfast quesadillas. It's now one of my husband's favorites. I haven't made it for my grandkids yet, but I'll bet they will like it too. I don't always use the bacon, since we also enjoy these tortillas with just the eggs and lots of hot sauce."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 2 flour tortillas
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1⁄4 teaspoon hot sauce (I like Chalula brand)
• 2 slices bacon
• 1⁄4 cup cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon butter
• salt and pepper

directions

1. In a large skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towel, then crumble. Set aside.
2. Beat the eggs adding the milk and hot sauce.
3. In another small skillet, heat the butter over medium low heat and when hot, scramble the eggs, cooking until soft and creamy.
4. Lay out 1 tortilla. Top with the cooked eggs, the bacon and the cheese.
5. Place the second tortilla on top of the filling.
6. Reheat the bacon fat in the first skillet over medium heat. Place the filled tortilla in the skillet, cooking for about 1 minute.
7. Flip the tortilla with a large spatula and cook the other side until browned and crispy, about 1 more minute.
8. Remove from heat and cut the tortilla like a pizza into wedges.
9. Serve with more hot sauce, or salsa.

I made it for me and DH for breakfast. We loved it. I used spicy buffalo sauce. Thanks Geema :) Made for Alphabet tag game

Yum!!! :) I scaled it down for one, and used one large burrito tortilla (that I folded over as I cooked), 2 eggs, and a handful of monterrey jack cheese. I cooked the bacon on my george foreman grill, so I didn't cook it in the bacon grease, just a pan sprayed with PAM. Very tasty and a filling breakfast! Thank you so much for sharing!

Great! I made this as directed and used a Mexican 4-cheese blend. Served with some salsa and both my grandson and I wolved these down. Thanks Geema for a quick and simple treat. Made for Alphabet Chef Soup Tag.
