- 1/2 cup cheddar or cojack cheese (grated)
- 2 egg (scrambled)

- 4 salsa (4 Tablespoons, optional)
Directions
1. Put 2 Tablespoons cheese and 1/4 of the scrambled eggs on each tortilla.

Notes
Kids can make these as plain as they like or can add ingredients such as peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms or onions. Quesadillas make a great breakfast or lunch that's easy and quick. Instead of using a microwave, you can heat the tortillas on a skillet or griddle until the cheese melts.
Safety Tips: The melted cheese is hot, so wait a minute before eating. Use a knife or pizza wheel to cut the quesadilla into wedges for serving.
