Check out our reheating tips below for keeping that exterior crisp.
Watch Breakfast Quesadilla Video Tutorial:
Watch Natasha make this breakfast quesadilla recipe. It really doesn’t get any easier than this! We love that these come together in one pan so there is minimal cleanup.
Ingredients for Egg Quesadillas:
The ingredients are so simple that you will have this recipe memorized by the time you are finished watching the video tutorial. For the basic egg quesadilla, you will need an 8-inch flour tortilla, 2 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, and 1/4 cup of Mexican cheese (or your favorite melting cheese like cheddar or mozzarella).
You can add extra protein and our favorites are breakfast sausage. If you aren’t able to find the sausage patties, you can buy breakfast sausages and remove the casing. Bacon is always a favorite for a bacon egg and cheese quesadilla. Ham is convenient because you don’t have to pre-cook the meat and can use leftover Baked Ham.
What to Serve with Breakfast Quesadillas:
Quesadillas are great by themselves but we love to serve them with these fresh toppings like Pico de Gallo and our Roasted Salsa. Our children love them with sour cream.
How to Freeze Quesadillas:
To Freeze – Arrange quesadillas in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flash freeze for 2 hours. Once they are solid, transfer to a freezer-safe zip bag and store in the freezer. To Reheat – Place frozen quesadillas into a toaster oven at 350˚F and reheat until warmed through and cheese is melted. We love reheating in an air fryer to re-crisp the outside. If you thaw quesadillas in the refrigerator for a couple of hours or overnight, they will reheat twice as fast.
