Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium-sized flour tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas)
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1/2 cup onions, diced
- 2 eggs (or 1/2 cup crumbled tofu for a vegan option)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Salsa and sour cream (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Veggies: Sauté bell peppers, onions, and any other vegetables you want to include in olive oil until soft and fragrant. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices.
- Scramble the Eggs (or tofu): If using eggs, scramble them in a separate pan and cook until just set. For a vegan option, scramble tofu with spices and a little turmeric for color.
- Assemble the Quesadilla: Heat a tortilla in a skillet, add a layer of sautéed veggies, scrambled eggs (or tofu), and shredded cheese (optional). Place a second tortilla on top and cook until golden brown on both sides.
Notes
- Vegan Option: Skip the cheese and eggs, using tofu as your protein source instead. Vegan cheese is also a great alternative.
- Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free tortillas for a delicious gluten-free meal.
- Add-ins: Feel free to add beans, corn, or your favorite spices to the mix to customize the quesadilla.
