How to Make Bacon And Egg Quesadillas

  1. Cook the bacon: Cook bacon until crisp. Remove from pan, crumble, and set aside.
  2. Sauté the onion: In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 15 seconds, stirring constantly.
  3. Cook the eggs: Pour in the beaten eggs and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set but still slightly moist.
  4. Stir in bacon: Stir in the crumbled bacon.
  5. Assemble the quesadillas: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Divide the egg and bacon mixture evenly between two tortillas. Sprinkle each with half of the cheese.
  6. Fold and cook: Fold the tortillas in half. Lightly brush the outsides of the quesadillas with oil.
  7. Toast the quesadillas: Wipe out the skillet and heat over medium heat. Cook the quesadillas for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  8. Serve immediately: Serve the quesadillas hot and enjoy! They are delicious on their own or with your favorite salsa and sour cream.
