Ingredients
  

  • 6 small flour tortillas street taco size
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or Mexican cheese blend
  • 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional add-ins: diced bell peppers chopped spinach, or crumbled bacon

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, crack your eggs and whisk them until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add your beaten eggs.
  • Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges to the center as they begin to set. You want them slightly underdone since they'll continue cooking in the quesadillas.
  • Remove the eggs from the pan and wipe it clean with a paper towel.
  • Place your tortillas on a clean surface and divide the scrambled eggs between them, placing them on one half of each tortilla.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the eggs, then fold the empty half of each tortilla over to create a half-moon shape.
  • Return the pan to medium heat and add the remaining butter. Cook quesadillas in batches, about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
