Description
Golden, crispy tortillas stuffed with fluffy eggs, savory ham, and gooey melted cheese — these breakfast quesadillas are quick to make and absolutely delicious!
Ingredients
-
4 large flour tortillas
-
6 large eggs
-
1 cup diced cooked ham
-
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack cheese
-
2 tbsp milk
-
1 tbsp butter or oil (for cooking eggs)
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
Optional: green onions, hot sauce, or salsa for serving
Instructions
1️⃣ Scramble the eggs:
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook eggs until just set but still soft and fluffy. Remove from heat.
2️⃣ Assemble the quesadillas:
Lay tortillas flat. On one half of each tortilla, layer shredded cheese, scrambled eggs, diced ham, and a little extra cheese on top. Fold the other half over to close.
3️⃣ Cook the quesadillas:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place quesadillas in the pan (one or two at a time depending on size) and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
4️⃣ Slice and serve:
Cut quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with salsa, hot sauce, or avocado slices.
Notes
-
You can prep the filling ahead and assemble/cook in the morning for a fast breakfast.
