Breakfast Quesadilla

Yields6 Servings
 nonstick cooking spray
 4 eggs (beaten)
 2 10-inch whole wheat flour tortillas
 4 slices turkey bacon (cooked crisp and crumbled)
 ¼ cup canned green chiles
 1 tsp black pepper
 1 ½ cups reduced fat cheddar cheese, or Mexican blend, Monterey Jack or pepper jack
1

Coat a small skillet lightly with cooking spray.

2

Saute green chiles over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes. Add beaten eggs and cook, stirring, until scrambled and set. Season with pepper

3

Coat a second, large skillet lightly with cooking spray. Place one tortilla in the skillet and cook over medium heat until air bubbles begin to form, about 1 minute. Flip tortilla over and cook for 1 minutes more (do not let tortilla get crispy).

4

Spread half the cheese evenly over the tortilla, covering to the edges.

5

Reduce heat to low. Quickly arrange half the cooked bacon and half the egg mixture over the cheese. Cook until the cheese starts to melt, about 1 minute.

6

Fold tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape. Flip folded tortilla over and cook until it is lightly toasted and the cheese filling is completely melted, 1-2 minutes.

7

Transfer quesadilla to a cutting board. Recoat the skillet with cooking spray, and repeat with the second tortilla and remaining cheese, bacon, and egg mixture.

8

Cut each quesadilla into 3 wedges and serve immediately with fresh salsa
