Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 2
On the rimmed baking sheet, place the Bacon (6 slices). Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Then remove and set aside.
step 3
Whisk the Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (4) in a small mixing bowl until thoroughly combined.
step 4
In a large hot skillet, add 1 tsp of Unsalted Butter (1 tsp) and sauté Onion (1) and Jalapeño Pepper (1 Tbsp) until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
step 5
Add the beaten eggs to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, or until the egg starts to look dry on top. It shouldn’t be a scramble but more of an omelet.
step 6
Flip the egg over and cook for another 15 seconds, or until the egg is cooked through.
step 7
On a flat surface, place the 8-Inch Flour Tortillas (8) and top with 1 Tbsp of Pimento Cheese (1/2 cup). Spread the cheese out, and press down a little bit.
step 8
Add the cooked egg, 1 ½ bacon strips, and 1 more Tbsp of pimento cheese on top. Cover the quesadilla with the second tortilla. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
step 9
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tsp of Unsalted Butter (1 1/3 Tbsp). Put in a tortilla and cook on each side for 3 minutes or until browned. Repeat with the rest of the quesadillas.
step 10
Transfer to a cutting board and cut into slices. Serve with Sour Cream (to taste) and Pico de Gallo (to taste) if desired.
