Breakfast Queso Not Just For Breakfast Food

BREAKFAST QUESADILLAS RECIPE (3 EASY WAYS)

Steps:

• Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook Sausage or Bacon until browned and cooked through then remove to a plate. If using cooked ham, you can heat it up or just add it over the cheese in step 4. Wipe excess oil from skillet if needed. Reduce heat to low.
• In a measuring cup, add 2 eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, or add seasoning to taste. Beat with a fork. Add beaten eggs and swirl to spread evenly over the bottom of the pan. Cook over low heat until When eggs are nearly cooked through (if you tilt the pan they shouldn't run).
• Sprinkle the top with 2 Tbsp shredded cheese then cover with a tortilla. The cheese will make the tortilla stick to the egg. Use a large spatula to get under the egg and quickly flip over.
• Sprinkle another 2 Tbsp of cheese or add cheese to taste. Sprinkle your cooked protein (sausage, bacon or ham) over half of the surface and fold the tortilla in half. Sautee on both sides until golden brown.* Remove from skillet and use a pizza cutter to cut quesadilla into wedges and serve warm.

BREAKFAST QUESO--NOT JUST FOR BREAKFAST!

Steps:

• Brown the sausage chopping it into tiny pieces as it cooks. While the sausage is cooking, cut the cheese bricks into cubes.
• Once the sausage is browned and crumbly, toss in the cheese, and pour in the rotel.
• Cook and stir until cheese is melted and mixture is bubbly. Serve warm with flour tortillas and/or tostada chips!
• *Reduce the fat/calories by using less sausage and reduced or fat free cream cheese.

BREAKFAST QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Cook bacon in frying pan on medium-high until lightly crisp, remove and chop. Open can of beans drain half of the liquid then put into pan. Add about 2 Tbs. of the rendered bacon fat to the beans and cook on medium low, begin mashing the beans with a potato masher or other utensil like a slotted spoon. Once mashed to desired consistency mix in chopped bacon then salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat. (Make sure not to over salt due to the already saltiness of the bacon)
• Warm 4-8 tortillas by placing them in between two salad size plates face to face (this creates a tortilla warmer effect and will keep them warm without drying them out) and microwave for about 30seconds.
• Meanwhile begin frying eggs in the remaining rendered bacon fat until done sunny side up or to your desired style. (I like my yolk done easy)
• Spread refried beans onto individual tortillas then top with slices of queso fresco then plate, return to microwave for 15-20 seconds on high or place flat in a wide pan on medium heat until warm. Once warm place one egg on top of each tortilla with bean and cheese, then top with about 3-4 Tbs. fruit salsa, top that with 3-4 slices of avocado and sprinkle a pinch of chopped cilantro.
• Enjoy!
