Ingredients
 

  • 2 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion
  • 1 black pepper
  • 2 jalapeño finely chopped (optional)
  • 3 egg
  • 4 egg whites
  • 4 8- inch whole wheat tortillas
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños (if desired); cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Add eggs and egg whites; cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until eggs are set. Remove from heat.
  • Top each tortilla evenly with egg mixture and cheese.
  • Fold each tortilla in half; cook in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, for 4 to 5 minutes, turning once, until cheese is melted and tortilla is golden brown.
  • Tip: You can cook quesadillas you are going to eat or serve, and you can tightly wrap the others and refrigerate for 3 to 4 days (or freeze them). This is a great way to have breakfasts prepared in advance.
