Chicken Breakfast Quesadilla

Sometime I'll post about one of the Darling Devoted Husband's and my favorite quick, lazy meals: chicken quesadillas. Suffice it to say, it's pretty much like this only without the eggs.

Heat a can of chicken in a skillet, seasoning with cumin, cayenne, and a dash of cinnamon:

 

Add two eggs:

  

Add vegetables to taste. I like tomatoes, jalapenos are also good; whatever you like:

  

Butter one side each of two tortillas:

  

When the egg of the filling is completely cooked, remove from skillet and set aside (or you can do the next steps in a separate skillet). Place one tortilla, butter side down, in the skillet. Add grated cheese to taste (cheddar and colby jack are both good; I suppose if you like it, pepper jack cheese would also work):

  

 Add filling:

  

 Add more cheese, if desired:

  

Place second tortilla, butter side up, on top:

  

Let cook until browned, two or three minutes, then flip:

  

 Let second side browned, then remove and serve:

  

 So delicious! It doesn't remotely qualify as a healthy meal, but it's fast, cheap, easy, and delightfully delectable. The DDH made this for breakfast the other day; if he's in charge of dinner, we're likely to get nachos or the egg-less version of this. I buy packs of cans of chicken at Sam's Club so we normally have it on hand; tortillas, eggs, and cheese are staples in our house, and I toss in whatever reasonable vegetables I have on hand, so it's a good emergency meal for us.
