Breakfast Quesadillas
Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp local Ontario milk
- 2 tbsp local Ontario unsalted butter
- ½ cup shredded local Ontario cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup diced red and green bell pepper
- ¼ cup diced onion
- 4, 6-inch flour tortillas
Directions:
- Whisk 2 eggs and 1 tablespoon of Ontario milk in a bowl.
- Melt 1 teaspoon of Ontario butter in a pan over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion, cooking for 4-5 minutes until the onion is translucent. Set half aside.
- Pour eggs into the pan with remaining vegetables. Tilt the pan, gently push eggs to let uncooked parts flow. Cook until set, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Place the omelet on a tortilla, top with cheese, and cover with another tortilla. Brown both sides in the pan, about 2 minutes per side. Cut into 4 pieces.
- Beat remaining eggs and Ontario milk. Grease the pan with Ontario butter and repeat with reserved vegetables, cheese, and tortillas. Enjoy!
