These Easy Breakfast Quesadillas are filled with fluffy scrambled eggs, green peppers, bacon, and cheddar cheese, all enveloped between two crispy tortilla shells. It’s an easy meal that’s perfect for busy mornings!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (any kind)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 green pepper, diced
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked, drained, and roughly chopped
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 6 medium soft tortilla shells

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Add green peppers and stir to combine. Set aside.

  • In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring often, until no longer runny. Remove the eggs to a separate plate.

  • In the same skillet (wipe if needed), melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

  • Place one tortilla shell in the center of the pan.

  • Top with 1/4 cup cheddar cheese, leaving a 1/2 inch border around the tortilla.

  • Spread a portion of scrambled eggs evenly over the cheese, followed by chopped bacon and a bit more cheese if desired.

  • Place a second tortilla shell on top and press down gently.

  • Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cheese is melted.

  • Repeat with the remaining tortilla shells and filling. Serve immediately.

Notes

I chose not to sauté the green peppers before adding them to the eggs, which keeps them slightly crunchy. If you prefer softened green peppers, sauté them in a tablespoon of butter or oil until tender before adding to the eggs.
