Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 3 pieces Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 strips Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Sour cream, for serving
- 0.5 cup Salsa, for serving
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and just set. Remove from heat and set aside.
Clean the skillet and return it to medium heat. Place one flour tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the entire surface.
On top of the cheese, add half of the scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, diced bell pepper, and chopped red onion. Sprinkle with a little fresh cilantro if desired.
Top the filling with another layer of cheese, then place the second tortilla on top and gently press down with a spatula.
Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a large spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing it into wedges.
Repeat the process with any remaining ingredients if making multiple quesadillas.
Serve warm with sour cream, salsa, and additional cilantro if desired.
