Egg Avocado Quesadilla (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 freshly cracked eggs, large
02 -
1 cup of cheese, shredded finely (your choice of mozzarella or cheddar)
03 -
2 soft flour tortillas, made for ultimate crispiness
→ Fresh Toppings
04 -
1 perfectly ripe avocado, sliced thin
→ For Cooking
05 -
1 tablespoon of butter to get a nice golden finish
06 -
A pinch of salt and pepper to season
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Heat your skillet on medium, then toss in the butter. Let it melt until it’s shiny and coats the surface.
02 -
Gently crack the eggs one at a time into the warm skillet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook just until the yolks are soft and the whites are firm. Remove with care.
03 -
Lay one tortilla flat in the pan. Sprinkle half the cheese evenly, making a nice cheesy base for your layers.
04 -
Place your cooked eggs on the cheesy layer. Add avocado slices around the eggs, then sprinkle the last bit of cheese on top.
05 -
Place the second tortilla on top. Cook for a couple of minutes until the bottom is a deep golden color, then confidently flip to cook the other side so both end up crispy and the cheese melts perfectly.
06 -
Slide the hot quesadilla onto a cutting board, slice into triangles, and dig in while it’s warm and gooey.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Feel free to toss in extras like sour cream, salsa, or some fresh chopped herbs.
02 -
The trick for the best texture is cooking over low or medium heat so the cheese melts and the tortillas stay crisp.
