CRISPY BREAKFAST QUESADILLA

GF.

Golden and crispy on the outside, cheesy and loaded with eggs and bacon on the inside, this is breakfast you actually want to get out of bed for.

Why you’ll love it: It takes around 10 minutes, requires one frying pan and gives you approximately 35–40g protein without needing a protein shake on the side. It is also a great option for anyone who prefers a proper savoury breakfast but is bored of eating eggs the exact same way every morning.

Prep time: 3 minutes
Cook time: 7 minutes
Servings: 1

Ingredients:

-  2 eggs
-  ½ cup egg whites
-  Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
-  2 rashers bacon, chopped
-  1 large gluten-free tortilla/wrap
-  25 g (0.06 lb) grated cheddar cheese
-  Small handful baby spinach
-  Salsa or hot sauce, to serve

Method:

1. Cook the bacon in a frying pan over medium heat until lightly crispy. Remove and set aside.
2. Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt and pepper, then add to the same pan.
3. Gently scramble until almost cooked through, then remove from the pan.
4. Place the tortilla in the pan. Add the cheese over one half, followed by the eggs, bacon and spinach.
5. Fold the tortilla over and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and crisp and the cheese has melted.
6. Slice and serve with salsa or hot sauce.

Extra notes:
You can swap the bacon for cooked chicken or turkey sausage. For an even faster morning, cook the bacon ahead of time. Then this becomes little more than scramble, fill and crisp.
