Serves: 1
Ingredients
1 pack bacon
1 burrito size tortillas
2 large eggs
3/4 cheese, grated or shredded
1/4 cup half and half or milk
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Paprika
Instructions
1. If you are using bacon or any other meat that needs to be cooked, make sure to cook it separately, cut/rip into smaller pieces, and set aside. Do this first.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Add salt pepper, and paprika to taste.
3. In a pan large enough to fit the tortilla, melt butter in pan on low heat.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and do not touch it! Leave it as is.
5. When it starts to cook on top and bubble in the middle, add in cheese and bacon, make sure to disconnect any egg edges stuck to the pan by running your spatula around the edge of the pan. Stick quesadilla on top. Let the remaining slightly uncooked egg and cheese act as glue. Press down slightly to assist with the tortilla sticking to the egg.
6. Flip the pan onto a plate large enough to fit the entire tortilla.
7. Add in oil to the pan, place the tortilla back in, tortilla side down
8. Crisp the tortilla to liking, then fold it in half and press it down.
9. Slide that pretty thing onto a plate and enjoy. Happy eating 🙂 You can put hot sauce, avocado, ketchup, whatever you want on it!
