Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs
  • 4 oz turkey ham cubed
  • 1 small Roma tomato diced with seeds removed
  • ½ cup shredded cheese
  • 2 large flour tortillas

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
  • Add the cubed turkey ham and diced tomato. Stir to combine.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the pan.
  • Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fully set. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
  • Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the cheese evenly over the tortilla.
  • Once the cheese begins to melt, spread the egg scramble evenly over the tortilla.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the eggs.
  • Top with the second tortilla.
  • Cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and crisp.
  • Carefully flip the Breakfast Quesadilla and cook for about 1 minute more, or until the second side is browned and the cheese is fully melted.
  • Transfer to a cutting board, slice into wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Cheddar, Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or a Mexican cheese blend all work well.
  • Remove excess moisture from the tomato to keep the quesadilla crispy.
  • Cut into four wedges for larger portions or six wedges for sharing.
  • Pair with fresh fruit for a balanced breakfast.
