Quesadillas

I try to fill up the kids with protein in the morning.  This is a fast, easy and delicious meal (if okay with corn tortillas).  For protein I use whatever we have in the fridge, such as leftover chicken or sausage.  If neither are available, I will mash up 1 can of pinto or black beans with cumin, oregano, cinnamon, garlic powder and onion powder or fry an egg to top off the quesadilla.

Time:  < 10 minutes

Cheese (optional), we tend to use Monterey Jack or Colby goat’s cheese

Avocado

Black Olives
