Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Salsa, for serving
- Sour cream, for serving
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- In a large non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle one half of it with 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Top the cheese with a portion of the scrambled eggs and avocado slices. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup of cheese over the eggs and avocado.
- Fold the tortilla in half over the filling and cook until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted.
- Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make four quesadillas.
- Cut each quesadilla into triangles and serve on a rustic wooden board with sides of salsa and sour cream. Enjoy!
