This healthy breakfast quesadilla is simple to make, contains a great balance of protein, carbs and fats (so you feel satisfied for hours) and it's flexible, meaning you can add more protein or make it extra spicey!
Start by prepping veggies; dice your onion, jalapenos, and red pepper.
Heat one skillet for the veggies and eggs AND another for the tortilla to crisp up
Lay one tortilla on the skillet for 2-4 minutes or until crispiness is achieved
Saute veggies in an oil-sprayed skillet on medium heat for 3-5 minutes
Add diced turkey sausage and continue to saute for another 1-2 minutes
Add your scrambled eggs and cook the mixture until the eggs are to your liking
Add cheese to the top of your eggs and then the uncooked tortilla
Flip the tortilla with the eggs under so the tortilla can crisp, put the already crisp tortilla on top and continue to cook for 2-4 minutes (this part takes a bit of practice but you will get the hang of it!
Done! Serve with a side of nonfat greek yogurt for dipping!
Notes
Quick Tip:
Make sure that you don’t turn the cook top up too high and burn your tortillas! Pay close attention to how long you leave the tortilla on the pan.
