What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Foodstuff Redefined: Quesadilla Egg Scramble! Whether you stack it or fold it, everyone loves a quesadilla. I mean, just say the word, “cay-sah-dee-ya”. It rolls off the tongue naturally as images of gooey melted cheese swim through your mind. Just the thought of a golden brown crispy tortilla dribbled with spicy salsa is enough to make a foodie salivate. Throw in your morning’s scrambled eggs along with slivers of last night’s pork roast and you have a reason to hit the floor running. Quesadilla!
QUESADILLA EGG SCRAMBLE
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shredded pork
3 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons light cream
1 tablespoon butter
2 corn tortillas
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup salsa
Green onion for garnish
Instructions:
Heat shredded pork and set aside. Whisk together eggs and light cream. In a small skillet, heat butter over low heat. Do not scorch. Add egg mixture. Scramble to cook eggs until soft and creamy. Set aside. To assemble quesadilla, place one corn tortilla on a plate. Top with cooked eggs, shredded pork, and cheese. Cover with the second tortilla. Brush the bottom of an iron skillet with olive oil. Carefully transfer the quesadilla to the skillet. Cook on medium heat for one minute until crispy. Brush the top with olive oil. Using a large spatula, flip the tortilla and brown for an additional minute. Remove from heat. Cut quesadilla into wedges. Serve with salsa and green onions.
Thanks, Gail. You have given me a great recipe to have for breakfast today. Take care. Scott

Awww. Thanks very much. I tend to get on a roll and almost make something too often. It happens when there’s only two of us. We’ve had three meals now of manicotti. 🤣
