Bacon quesadillas are a great way to enjoy bacon with a Mexican flair.  The recipe is quite simple and you can be creative adding your favorite additional ingredients (peppers, onions, mushrooms, sausage) and different cheeses.  Don't forget lots of bacon.

Ingredients 

• 6 slices bacon, Taco Bacon is a natural.
• 6 large eggs
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese, grated or sliced thin
• 8 large flour tortillas

Instructions

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Chop the bacon and add to the skillet, cooking until crisp. Remove some (but not all) of the grease.
• Crack the eggs into a bowl and add a splash of water or milk. Whisk until smooth.
• Add the eggs to the skillet with the bacon and season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat. Scramble into small pieces, until desired doneness.
• Cover one flour tortilla with a thin layer of shredded cheese. Top with some of the scrambled eggs and bacon.
• Add more shredded cheese and place another flour tortilla on top.
• Carefully set the quesadilla into the pan over medium heat. Cook until the cheese begins to slightly melt and the bottom tortilla is golden brown.
• Carefully flip over and cook for 1-2 more minutes. Remove to a plate.
• Slice and serve warm with salsa, sour cream and guacamole.
