SPICY QUESADILLA

Very, Very good, if you can find the sundried tomato tortillas, they add a wonderful taste, as compared to the plain ones. We pass the salsa also, with the sour cream. More heat can be added if desired and the recipe can be scaled down to one or two.

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

cooking spray
2 (4 ounce) links spicy pork breakfast sausage
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons chopped green onions
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 (6 inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons nacho cheese sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. Add sausages and cook, turning often, until cooked through and browned, 12 to 16 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove sausages from the skillet and chop when cool enough to handle.
  • Beat eggs in a small bowl with milk.
  • Spray a small skillet with cooking spray and set over low heat. Add the beaten eggs, green onions, salt, and pepper; cook until edges are set, then gently turn with a spatula until scrambled, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove eggs to a plate and wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.
  • Place 1 tortilla in the skillet over low heat. Top with 1/2 of the nacho cheese sauce, 1/2 of the chopped sausage, and 1/2 of the scrambled eggs. Top with another tortilla and cook, carefully turning once, just until lightly browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat to cook remaining quesadilla.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tortillas. Corn or flour tortillas can be used for quesadillas, but corn tortillas are more traditional and have a slightly sweeter flavor. Look for tortillas that are fresh and pliable.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful your quesadillas will be. Some good options include bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, zucchini, and spinach.
  • Don't overstuff the quesadillas. If you overload them with fillings, they will be difficult to fold and cook evenly.
  • Use a hot skillet. This will help to create a crispy exterior and prevent the quesadillas from becoming soggy.
  • Cook the quesadillas until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted. This will ensure that they are cooked through and delicious.
  • Serve the quesadillas with your favorite toppings. Some good options include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and pico de gallo.

Conclusion:

Spicy vegetable quesadillas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a variety of fillings and toppings to choose from, there are endless possibilities for creating your own unique quesadillas. So get creative and experiment with different flavors and combinations to find your perfect quesadilla recipe.
