Breakfast Quesadilla

Delicious and filling breakfast to fuel your day!

Ingredients

  • 6 small 100% whole wheat tortillas
  • 6 eggs
  • splash of milk
  • butter or oil (for cooking eggs)
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1/3 cup mushrooms, diced
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced
  • salt and pepper to tast
  • 1/2-1 cup cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese

Note: Feel free to use any veggies you prefer in the eggs!

Instructions

  1. Whisk the eggs, splash of milk and salt and pepper in a bowl. 

  2. Heat a skillet to medium and cook the green pepper, garlic and mushrooms until soft. 

  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture on top. As the eggs begin to set, move the spatula along the eggs to form curds. Cook until the eggs are fully cooked through, about a few minutes. 

  4. Assemble the quesadillas: Place one tortilla on a plate. Add 1/3 of the egg and vegetable mixture. Top with 1/3 of the cheese (be generous as this will act as a glue to bind the quesadilla together. Place another tortilla on top. Transfer to a frying pan of medium to low heat. Cook one side for 1-2 minutes until slightly browned. Flip and cook on the other side.
