Breakfast Quesadillas
I'm not really a breakfast person. I'm the type of person that will either have last night's dinner leftovers for breakfast or skip breakfast all together. If you're like me, you'll LOVE these cheesy breakfast quesadillas! It's one of those breakfast meals that doesn't taste like traditional breakfast food. It has seasoned ground sausage, eggs, sauteed onions and peppers all smothered in Mexican blend cheeses sandwhiched between two buttered tortillas. YUMMY!!!
Cheesy Breakfast Quesadillas
​
Ingredients
1 lb of ground breakfast sausage
½ yellow onion (chopped)
1 green bell pepper (chopped)
2 Tbsp butter (divided)
5 eggs (scrambled)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (approx.)
At least 10 soft flour tortillas
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
-
Place sausage in a skillet on medium high heat and brown until there are no traces of pink. (I like to fry mine until some crust forms.)
-
Remove meat from the skillet with a spoon.
-
Add in chopped onion and bell pepper.
-
Sauté until softened. Remove from the skillet.
-
In a small skillet or pan, add 1 Tbsp of butter. Once melted, add in eggs.
-
Sprinkle in some salt, pepper, and about a handful of shredded cheese.
-
Scramble eggs to your liking. Remove from heat.
-
Now it’s time to build your quesadilla! Place ½ Tbsp of butter in a skillet.
-
Put in one tortilla then top with cheese, eggs, sausage, onions, bell pepper, and more cheese.
-
Top with another tortilla. Use a plate to flip the quesadilla over to brown on the other side.
-
Once brown on both sides, put quesadilla in a plate and cut into fourths.
-
Serve and enjoy!
*I like mine with salsa! You could also add avocado, spinach, or even hot sauce!
