Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from skillet and let them drain on a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt and black pepper, and whisk until combined. Pour the eggs into the skillet and scramble them over medium heat until fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On one tortilla, layer half of the cheddar cheese, followed by the scrambled eggs and cooked bacon. Top with the remaining cheese and place the second tortilla on top.

  4. 4

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Carefully place the assembled quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Flip the quesadilla and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.

  5. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
