Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 8 flour tortillas
- 1 pound breakfast sausage cooked
- 6 large eggs scrambled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- salsa for serving, optional
Instructions
- If you haven’t already, cook your sausage and eggs.
- Top a tortilla with 1/4 of the sausage, eggs, and cheese. Transfer the tortilla to a pan over medium-high heat and top with another tortilla.
- Cool your quesadilla for about 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- Serve immediately with optional salsa and enjoy!
Notes
- While these quesadillas are best served fresh, you can store them in an airtight container or wrap them in tin foil and keep them in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Reheat your quesadillas on the stove over low-medium heat or in the microwave.
- Add some spice by using pepper jack cheese instead of regular cheddar.
- Add some extra seasoning by sprinkling 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, freshly chopped parsley, or dried oregano over your eggs as they cook.
- We like to use spicy ground sausage, but any kind of ground sausage will work great.
- For an extra crunchy quesadilla, melt a tablespoon of butter in your pan before adding the quesadilla.
