Ingrédients
  

  • 4 slices bacon
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes

Instructions
 

  • Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove, drain on paper towels, and chop.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  • In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring, until scrambled and just set.
  • Add chopped bacon, green onions, and tomatoes to the eggs. Stir to combine.
  • Place one tortilla in a clean skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the tortilla.
  • Spread the egg mixture evenly over the cheese and top with the remaining cheese.
  • Place the second tortilla on top and cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes more.
  • Transfer to a cutting board and slice into wedges. Serve warm.
