Breakfast Quesadillas


Ingredients

  • 2 tsp. olive oil

  • 1 medium onion chopped

  • 1 medium red or orange bell pepper chopped

  • 2 medium jalapeños seeds and veins removed, finely chopped (optional)

  • 3 large eggs lightly beaten

  • 4 large egg whites ½ cup

  • 4 8-inch whole wheat tortillas

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños (if desired); cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Reduce heat to medium-low.

  3. Add eggs and egg whites; cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until eggs are set. Remove from heat.

  4. Top each tortilla evenly with egg mixture and cheese.

  5. Fold each tortilla in half; cook in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, for 4 to 5 minutes, turning once, until cheese is melted and tortilla is golden brown.

  6. Tip: You can cook quesadillas you are going to eat or serve, and you can tightly wrap the others and refrigerate for 3 to 4 days (or freeze them). This is a great way to have breakfasts prepared in advance.
