Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup fat free liquid egg substitute
  • 1/2 cup chopped thinly sliced red and green bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped sliced onion
  • 1 oz low fat sour cream, divided
  • 3 tbsps salsa
  • 2 tbsp black beans
  • 1 low carb high fiber tortilla
  • 1 slice center cut bacon
  • 1 slice white American cheese

Directions

  • Cook bacon according to package directions, either in a pan with nonstick spray or in the microwave. Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop and set aside.
  • Bring a medium-large pan (at least the size of the tortilla) sprayed with non-stick spray to medium heat. Add peppers and onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Add egg substitute and scramble until fully cooked. Transfer mixture to a bowl and set pan aside to cool.
  • Add bacon, beans, 1 tablespoon sour cream and salsa verde (not the regular salsa) to the egg-scramble bowl. If you like, add cilantro as well. Lightly mix and set aside.
  • Clean and dry the pan, spray with non-stick spray, and bring to medium-high heat. Place tortilla flat in the pan and sprinkle evenly with cheese.
  • Spoon egg mixture over one half of the tortilla, fold the other half over the mixture to form the quesadilla, and then press down with a spatula to seal.
  • Cook until both sides are crispy, about 2 minutes per side. (Flip very carefully.)
  • Plate your quesadilla and cut it into triangles. Top with salsa and a tablespoon sour cream. Enjoy!
