Ingredients

• 2 large flour tortillas
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 bacon strips
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 bell pepper, diced
• 1 tomato, diced
• 2 green onion, sliced
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

Step 3

Wipe the skillet with a paper towel. Add the butter and let it melt over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble until fully cooked but still soft. Remove the scrambled eggs from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, place one tortilla and layer with half of the cheese, all of the scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, diced bell pepper, diced tomato, sliced green onions, and hot sauce if using. Top with the remaining cheese and the second tortilla.

Step 5

Cook the quesadilla over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Step 6

Remove from skillet and let the quesadilla cool for a minute before slicing into wedges.

Step 7

Serve warm and enjoy your savory breakfast quesadilla.
