Sheet Pan Breakfast Quesadillas
Eggs, melty cheese and meat fill these Sheet Pan Breakfast Quesadillas which makes for the most crave-able breakfast that's sure to get you (and the kids!) outta bed!
Ingredients
- ½ lb ground pork sausage
- ¼ c chopped bell peppers optional
- ¼ c chopped green onions optional
- 8 eggs
- ½ c cottage cheese
- ¼ teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil divided
- 6 8-inch soft flour tortillas
- 8 oz shredded cheese
- salsa, sour cream, diced avocados optional for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a large skillet on medium heat, brown the sausage with the peppers and green onions. Once done cooking, pour the mixture into a bowl and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese and seasoned salt.
- Using the same skillet, scramble the egg mixture on low heat. Once finished, set aside.
- Pour ½ tablespoon vegetable oil onto a sheet pan and use a brush to spread it evenly across the pan.
- Fold each tortilla in half and place them on the pan so they do not overlap. (See my pictures above).
- In each tortilla, layer ½ of the cheese, the egg mixture, sausage mixture and lastly the rest of the cheese.
- Brush the remaining vegetable oil on the tops of the quesadillas.
- Place a second sheet pan on top and press it down a bit. Put a heavy pan (like a cast iron skillet) on top and put into the oven.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the top pan and cook an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the top of the tortillas.
- Cut into wedges and serve warm with condiments.
