Quesadillas for breakfast? Sure! Ours are a jazzed-up version of a Mexican omelet and toast.


Ingredients
1 spray(s) cooking spray
8 oz fat-free egg substitute
4 slice(s) cooked crisp turkey bacon, crumbled
4 large burrito-size wheat flour tortilla(s)
1/4 cup(s) low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup(s) salsa
2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped


Instructions
Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat until a drop of water drizzled on pan sizzles. Add egg substitute and reduce heat to low; scramble eggs until firm, about 3 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.

Wipe skillet clean and recoat with cooking spray. Place skillet over medium-high heat and cook one tortilla for 2 minutes. Flip tortilla and place 1/4 of scrambled egg mixture, 1/4 of bacon and 1 tablespoon of cheese down center of tortilla. Fold tortilla in half and cook until filling is hot and cheese melts, about 1 minute more; set aside and cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

To serve, top each quesadilla with 2 tablespoons of salsa and 1/2 tablespoon of cilantro.

Re: breakfast (WW)

My favorite and most filling breakfast is 2 eggs over easy with 2 slices of light whole wheat bread. 6pts. and keeps me full for hours.

Other than that, I will also have a light and fit yogurt for 2 pts. and a piece of fruit or a special K bar for 2pts and piece of fruit.

Sometimes I'll do an eggwhite omelet with a slice of 2% american cheese.
