Ingredients

4 Large flour tortillas
4 strips Bacon
4 Large eggs
4 oz Sharp cheddar cheese shredded
1 teaspoon Garlic salt
1 tablespoon Louisiana hot sauce

Instructions

Cook the bacon: If you have an air fryer, air fry your bacon for 10-12 minutes at 375°F. Alternatively, you can bake your bacon, or fry it in a frying pan until crisp. Drain, and cut into bite-sized pieces
4 strips Bacon
Whisk the eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cracked eggs, milk, garlic salt and hot sauce.
4 Large eggs, 1 teaspoon Garlic salt, 1 tablespoon Louisiana hot sauce
Scramble the eggs: In a skillet over medium-low heat, cook the scrambled eggs in cooking spray or butter, depending on your choice. Gently push the eggs back as they are cooking, to ensure well-cooked, fluffy eggs. Once the eggs have set, remove from the heat.
Assemble the quesadillas: Lay down one flour tortilla flat. Add a thin layer of cheese. Top with half of the scrambled eggs, and half of the bacon. Top with another thin layer of cheese, and close the quesadilla with another flour tortilla. Repeat for the second quesadilla.
4 Large flour tortillas, 4 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
Cook the quesadillas: Spray a skillet with non-stick cooking spray, and cook the quesadillas over medium heat. Flip the quesadilla once the bottom has lightly browned. Cut into quarters, and enjoy!

Notes

To keep this recipe lower carb, you can use one tortilla instead of two. Layer the ingredients onto one side of the tortilla, and fold it over! Cook the same way, and cut into quarters.
