SIMPLE EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST QUESADILLAS
This is a recipe that I made up after being disappointed by the Dunkin' Donuts® breakfast quesadilla. These quesadillas are satisfying and filling, and a good way to start your day. I make these the night before for my husband. He re-warms them in the microwave or the toaster oven and they are as good as freshly made. They can also be made in advance and frozen for future breakfasts.

Steps:
- Beat 2 eggs with 1 1/2 tablespoons milk in a bowl.
- Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a 6-inch frying pan over medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove 1/2 the mixture and set aside in a bowl.
- Pour egg mixture and 1/2 vegetable mixture into the skillet. Tilt the pan, gently push one side of the egg, without breaking it, away from the side of the pan, and let the uncooked egg run onto the pan. Repeat with all four sides of the egg, cooking until bottom is set, about 2 minutes. Flip over and cook until bottom is slightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Slide omelet onto a tortilla, then slide tortilla back onto the pan. Place 1 slice of cheese onto the omelet and top with another tortilla. Cook until bottom is browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and brown opposite side, about 1 minute more. Slide quesadilla onto a plate and cut into 4 sections.
- Beat remaining 2 eggs and 1 1/2 tablespoons milk together in a bowl. Grease the same pan with the second teaspoon of butter. Repeat steps 3-4 with the reserved vegetables and the remaining cheese and tortillas.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers, onion and zucchini. Season with the smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat with the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and browning, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the garlic and oregano and stir to combine. Cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Grease the pan with the cooking spray. Carefully place a tortilla in the hot pan. Add 3 tablespoons cheese to half of the tortilla, spreading the cheese to the edges and allowing some to spill over to create a cheesy crust. Top with a hearty spoonful of the cooked pepper mixture, then top with another 3 tablespoons cheese. Fold the bare half of the tortilla over the cheese and pepper filling. Press down to flatten with a spatula. Cook until the cheese is melted and crusty and the tortilla is browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a serving platter. Season with salt and a squeeze of lime. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, peppers and cheese, wiping down the pan as needed. Serve with sour cream and salsa for dipping, if desired.

SCRAMBLED EGG QUESADILLAS
I had some flour tortillas to use up one day and decided to make some breakfast quesadillas. It's now one of my husband's favorites. I haven't made it for my grandkids yet, but I'll bet they will like it too. I don't always use the bacon, since we also enjoy these tortillas with just the eggs and lots of hot sauce.

- Lay out 1 tortilla. Top with the cooked eggs, the bacon and the cheese.
- Place the second tortilla on top of the filling.
- Reheat the bacon fat in the first skillet over medium heat. Place the filled tortilla in the skillet, cooking for about 1 minute.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Came up with this when I didn't want a regular breakfast biscuit. Cooking bacon isn't included in cooking time. If you want to save time,and a step or two just mix in the cooked bacon with the eggs before you scramble them. Heat level of salsa is Chef's choice. Don't be put off the long list of directions, it's easier than it looks. Submitted to "ZAAR" on August 24,2007
