Ingredients

Quesadillas

  • 6 eggs
  • 4 grande flour tortillas
  • Sausage or bacon, optional
  • White shredded queso cheese, as needed
  • Butter, for the griddle

Lime-mayo aioli

  • Mayonnaise
  • Lime juice
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Scramble the eggs. If using sausage or bacon, cook it and crumble it.
  2. Stir together mayonnaise, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to make the aioli.
  3. Butter a griddle. Spread aioli on a tortilla, add scrambled eggs, optional sausage or bacon, and white shredded queso to one side, then fold the tortilla over the filling.
  4. Cook on the buttered griddle, turning once, until the tortilla is golden and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
