BLEAT Quesadilla
Why settle for your everyday, run-of-the-mill BLT when you can add protein-packed “E”ggs and creamy, healthy “A”vocado to the mix and really elevate your lunch?
Ingredients
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten (or 1 whole egg + 2 whites) with a pinch of salt and pepper
- 1 whole-grain tortilla, ~7 inches
- Lettuce leaves
- 2 slices cooked turkey bacon
- 2 to 4 tomato slices
- ¼ to ½ avocado, sliced
Instructions
- Liberally coat a 10-inch skillet with oil spray and warm over medium heat. Add the eggs, tilting the skillet to evenly distribute them over the bottom of the hot pan.
- Dip one side of the tortilla into the egg, giving it a light coat. Then, place the un-dipped side flat on the pan into the eggs. Let the eggs cook and firm a bit, about 30 seconds. Using a wide spatula, carefully flip the entire thing over like a huge pancake (eggs and tortilla in one careful swoop).
- Layer on the lettuce, bacon, tomato and avocado on ONLY half the tortilla. Then, fold the tortilla half without toppings over the top with the toppings. Transfer to a serving plate, slice in half and dig in!
