Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 slice turkey bacon or other meat, diced
4-6 large eggs (I combined with Eggbeaters- not necessary)
1/2 medium bell pepper, diced
1/2 medium onion, diced
1 Tbsp fresh rosemary, minced
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
3 medium flour tortillas
2 Tbsp salsa or more (we made ours)
3/4 c cheese, shredded (Colby jack) (your choice)
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil, light
2 Tbsp butter, unsalted

Steps:

  • 1. Saute on medium-high heat: Turkey bacon, bell pepper, onion, rosemary, garlic salt, pepper, and salt in olive oil for about 7-min; cover with a lid for 3-min.
  • 2. Place into a bowl and stir in salsa.
  • 3. Using the same pan, lower heat to medium heat, add butter, spread around pan, lay 1 tortilla in the bottom.
  • 4. Add cheese top of tortilla.
  • 5. Then add half of the meat mixture on top of cheese.
  • 6. Add more cheese.
  • 7. Then another tortilla. Repeat another layer of cheese, meat mixture, cheese, and last tortilla. (Cheese acts as adhesive to keep quesadilla together.)
  • 8. Spread fresh tomatoes over top of quesadilla.
  • 9. Whip eggs with 2-tablespoons water. Pour over the quesadilla and tomatoes; cover pan.
  • 10. Turn the burner down to high-low heat; cook until egg is set.
  • 11. Slice and serve with favorite fruit!
