Brekkie Quesadilla




 This is my current FAVE brekkie... Whats better is this is my Husband's current fave brekkie too! As he is carnivore and turns his nose at the veggie patch...this makes me VERY happy!

This is a fantastic hangover cure....it is also a quick, easy brekkie to make and doesn't make much mess....which is great if you are feeling lazy on a Sunday ...or if you have a hangover!

I have listed the ingredients i use, however since this is basically a toasted sandwich you can alter the filling to whatever you crave, or whatever you have in the fridge. I often use leftover spicy mexican beans i have in the fridge from my mid-week taco dinner (or sometimes mince or ham for Matt) . Caramelised onion, diced capsicum, sour cream or cream cheese, pesto or even saute spinach & crumbled feta would make nice fillings too!
I haven't given quantities as just like a sandwich it is up to you how much or how little you fill it.

ingredients

* Pita Bread
* tomatoes
* avocado
* Ajvar (or some sort of chutney)
* Eggs
* Cheese
* Herbs (i used coriander)
* a little olive oil or butter


Method
*  for each quesadilla whisk 2 eggs in a small bowl, heat a non stick fry pan coat with a touch of oil (if required) and cook egg (make 1 thin omelet per quesadilla). remove pan from heat.

* lay a piece of pita bread on the bench, spread with Ajvar grate some cheese over, sprinkle with chopped tomato and avocado and herbs, lay the omelet on top, grate some more cheese over, spread another pita bread with Ajvar and cover to make a sandwich.

* Put the pan back on the heat (low-medium heat) add a little butter or olive oil to coat, place the pita 'sandwhich' in the pan and cook until crispy and golden, use a plate to cover the sandwich and 'flip' the pan upside down to put the 'sandwich' onto the plate.

* add a little more butter or oil to coat the pan again then Slide the 'sandwich' back into the pan to cook the other side. Once crispy and golden flip or slide the now 'Quesadilla' back onto the plate.

* cut into wedges and devour
