We’re back with a new breakfast meal prep! The recipe? A super quick Healthy Breakfast Quesadilla made using our favorite ingredient, cottage cheese! You can customize this one to your liking and they’re super easy to make.

We’re going to start by making our scramble. In a small mixing bowl, add 4 large whole eggs, 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, a little pepper, and some salt.

Yes, we’re using cottage cheese in our scramble for these breakfast quesadillas. If you’ve never tried it, it’s delicious! Here’s a link to our “original” scrambled eggs with cottage cheese recipe.

This recipe makes multiple quesadillas depending on the size of your tortillas (2 with 6”). If you want a single serving, you can halve it.

Mix those ingredients together. If you want a smoother texture, you can blend or process this mix but it’s really not needed.

From here, place a stovetop pan over medium heat and add in a 1/2 tablespoon of oil or butter into it.

Pour your egg mix in once it heats up and scramble your eggs. You can scramble them however long you like/to your preferred texture but keep them moving as they cook for the best result!

After those are done, put them off to the side and get ready to make your healthy breakfast quesadilla.

Breakfast Quesadillas

Keep your burner on medium heat and add in another 1/2 tablespoon of oil or butter.

Here is the part where you choose your tortillas! You can use whatever tortillas you want. Regular, mini, or even those Zero Net Carbs Mission ones that only have 25 calories each (they’re good!!!). I’ll put the nutritional breakdowns for all of these below in the recipe card.

Place your choice tortilla into your pan followed by sprinkling in 1/4 cup of your favorite cheese, I used a cheddar blend. Work with your macros here!

Continue by layering in 1/2 your scrambled eggs, 1/2 tablespoon of optional bacon bits, some optional chives, and another 1/4 cup of your favorite cheese.

Don’t like bacon bits and/or chives? Use whatever you want to this healthy breakfast quesadilla! Think spices, seasonings, sauces, vegetables, the list goes on. Here are some of my other favorite things to use in these…

Top these with guacamole, sour cream or plain Greek yogurt which is a great sour cream substitute, salsa, and so on to level them up even more!
