Ingredients
- 1 large burrito sized tortilla
- Butter or cooking spray
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (Mexican blend, cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- 1 small tomato, diced (without juices)
Instructions
- In a medium sized frying pan, add butter or cooking spray and once hot, add eggs and scramble until cooked but still soft. Remove eggs to a small bowl and set aside.
- Wipe out pan with a damp paper towel and place tortilla in pan.
- Sprinkle cheese over the entire tortilla and cook on low heat until cheese is almost melted.
- Add the eggs and tomatoes to half of the tortilla, and then fold the cheese half over, on top of the tomato half. Cook on medium-high heat for one minute and then carefully flip and cook quesadilla for an additional minute on the remaining side until both sides are golden brown.
- Remove quesadilla to a plate or cutting board and allow it to rest for a minute and then slice into four equal parts and serve.
