SIMPLE EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST QUESADILLAS
This is a recipe that I made up after being disappointed by the Dunkin' Donuts® breakfast quesadilla. These quesadillas are satisfying and filling, and a good way to start your day. I make these the night before for my husband. He re-warms them in the microwave or the toaster oven and they are as good as freshly made. They can also be made in advance and frozen for future breakfasts.

Steps:
- Beat 2 eggs with 1 1/2 tablespoons milk in a bowl.
- Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a 6-inch frying pan over medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove 1/2 the mixture and set aside in a bowl.
- Pour egg mixture and 1/2 vegetable mixture into the skillet. Tilt the pan, gently push one side of the egg, without breaking it, away from the side of the pan, and let the uncooked egg run onto the pan. Repeat with all four sides of the egg, cooking until bottom is set, about 2 minutes. Flip over and cook until bottom is slightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Slide omelet onto a tortilla, then slide tortilla back onto the pan. Place 1 slice of cheese onto the omelet and top with another tortilla. Cook until bottom is browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and brown opposite side, about 1 minute more. Slide quesadilla onto a plate and cut into 4 sections.
- Beat remaining 2 eggs and 1 1/2 tablespoons milk together in a bowl. Grease the same pan with the second teaspoon of butter. Repeat steps 3-4 with the reserved vegetables and the remaining cheese and tortillas.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Came up with this when I didn't want a regular breakfast biscuit. Cooking bacon isn't included in cooking time. If you want to save time,and a step or two just mix in the cooked bacon with the eggs before you scramble them. Heat level of salsa is Chef's choice. Don't be put off the long list of directions, it's easier than it looks. Submitted to "ZAAR" on August 24,2007

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh eggs, cheese, and bacon will make a big difference in the taste of your quesadillas.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the quesadillas in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the quesadillas from sticking to the pan.
- Cook the quesadillas over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Flip the quesadillas once: Only flip the quesadillas once during cooking. This will help them stay together and prevent the cheese from melting out.
- Serve the quesadillas immediately: Quesadillas are best served hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Bacon, egg, and cheese quesadillas are a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They're also a great way to use up leftover bacon and eggs. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
