VEGETARIAN QUESADILLAS
These are delicious and very filling! The small amount of cheese really goes a long way - they taste cheesy but aren't oozing and loaded with fat. They also contain lots of fiber. For a very nutritious and yummy meal, I eat half of one, a salad with avocado, and an orange.

Steps:
- Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add zucchini, squash, and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add garlic. Continue cooking until vegetables are tender, about 2 minutes more.
- Spread a scant 1/4 cup refried beans over each tortilla. Set 4 tortillas aside to be the tops of the quesadillas. Spoon 1/4 of the vegetable mixture over the remaining 4 tortillas. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese over the vegetables. Cover with the reserved tortillas, bean-side down.
- Wipe skillet out with a paper towel. Heat oil in the skillet over low heat. Add 1 quesadilla. Cook until browned and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Serve each quesadilla with 1/4 cup salsa.

Steps:
- To make the guacamole: Combine the guacamole ingredients in a small bowl. Mash with a fork until the mixture is well combined and mostly smooth. Set aside.
- To prepare the eggs: Scramble the eggs in a small bowl. Season with a couple dashes of hot sauce and a dash of salt.
- To cook the eggs: Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a medium-sized skillet (either well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick) over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chopped spinach and cook, stirring often, until wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the black beans to the skillet. Pour in the scrambled eggs and cook, stirring often, until the eggs are just set, about 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to pause the cooking process (the eggs will finish cooking in the quesadilla).
- To cook the quesadilla (if desired, you can cook two quesadillas at once): In a large skillet (preferably cast iron, but nonstick also works), warm the tortilla over medium heat, flipping occasionally. Once the pan and tortilla are warm, sprinkle one half of the quesadilla with 1/4 cup cheese. Top the cheese with scrambled eggs, then top the scrambled eggs with almost 1/4 cup cheese, reserving about 1 tablespoon of cheese for later. Press the empty tortilla halve over the toppings.
- Let the bottom side of the quesadilla cook for a minute, then carefully flip the quesadilla with a spatula. Immediately sprinkle the remaining tablespoon of cheese over the hot side of the quesadilla and let it melt as the other side cooks for a couple of minutes. Flip the quesadilla again, and let the cheese sizzle into the quesadilla for a couple of minutes. Use the spatula to get underneath the melty cheese side and flip again. Cook that side for a couple more minutes if necessary, until both sides are a nice, crisp golden brown.
- Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board to cool for a few minutes, then slice each quesadilla into 2 slices using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife. Serve with guacamole.

- When both are finished, slice and serve with fruit salsa.
VEGETARIAN BREAKFAST QUESADILLA
I got the idea from a recipe at Mr.Breakfast, but added some things of my own! It's pretty quick and delicious! Much better than cereal and milk again... About the "Mexican cheese", my local grocery store sells a bag that's a mix of three different cheeses, it's already shredded! They call it Mexican for some reason, and I always use it for this sort of thing.

Steps:
- Slice the onions, tomatoes, broccoli and veggie ham into small pieces. Mix in the vegetable oil.
- Heat a frying pan to medium-high. Add the vegetable mixture.
- Meanwhile, whisk the egg, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add to pan with the veggie mix when the broccoli is a little golden. Mix up to get a scrambled egg texture!
- Once the eggs look done, put this mixture in a bowl.
- Clean your frying pan (or get a new one) and rub 1 teaspoon of margarine around in it. Once it melts, put one tortilla in it, and spread some of the shredded cheese on top of it.
- Once the cheese starts to get a bit melty, spread the egg/veggie mixture you've set aside on top of it. Add the rest of the cheese on top of this, and then put the other tortilla on top!
- Spread the rest of the margarine on the top of the new tortilla, and check the bottom one to see if it's golden-brown. If it is, flip the quesadilla over with a spatula and heat the other side until that's golden-brown!
- Put on a plate, cut into slices, and serve!

- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with salt and pepper. Melt 2 teaspoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the eggs, and scramble them, stirring occasionally but letting the bottom set a bit in between stirs. Stop just barely before they are done to your liking, as they will continue to cook in the quesadilla, and scoop them into a plate.
- Wipe out the skillet, and then heat it again over medium high heat. Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in the skillet, then place one of the flour tortillas in the skillet. Place 1/4 of the scrambled eggs one half of the tortilla, and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of shredded or crumbled cheese over the eggs. You can either call it a day and fold the bare half of the tortilla over the filling, or sprinkle over any of the suggested toppings. Use a spatula to fold the bare half of the tortilla over the filling, and let cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the bottom of the quesadilla is golden brown. Use the spatula to flip the quesadilla over and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the other side is golden brown. Slide from the pan onto a plate, cut into thirds. Repeat with the remaining, butter, tortillas, eggs and desired fillings, and serve each one hot.

- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat in a large non-stick sauté pan. Add sweet potato and sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through. Transfer to a separate plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Add the veggies and jalapeño, and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Stir in the cooked sweet potato, black beans, cumin, chili powder, a generous pinch of salt and black pepper, and sauté for 2 more minutes. Taste and add more salt, pepper and/or cumin if needed. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and set aside. Rinse (or just wipe off) the sauté pan until it is clean.
- Return the sauté pan to the stove, and reduce heat to medium. Place a tortilla* in the center of the pan and immediately sprinkle your desired amount of cheese evenly over the surface of the tortilla. Add a few large spoonfuls (about 1 cup) of the veggie mixture on one half of the tortilla, then sprinkle on some cilantro. Fold the other side of the tortilla over to create a half moon. Continue cooking for another 30 seconds or so, or until the bottom of the tortilla is crisp and golden. (Just lift it up and take a peek to see when it’s ready to go.) Then carefully flip the tortilla over and cook it for an additional 30-60 seconds on the second side.

- To prepare the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the hot sauce and salt until they are well blended. Add the beans and set aside.
- To cook the eggs: Melt the butter in a medium-sized skillet (either well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick) over medium heat until it’s bubbling. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring often, until the eggs are just set, about 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to pause the cooking process (the eggs will finish cooking in the quesadilla). Stir in the green onion, cilantro and jalapeño.
- To cook the quesadilla: In a separate, large skillet, warm the tortilla over medium heat, flipping occasionally. Once the pan and tortilla are warm, sprinkle one-half of the cheese over one-half of the tortilla. Top the cheese with scrambled eggs, then top the scrambled eggs with the remaining cheese.
- Press the empty tortilla halve over the toppings. Let the quesadilla cook until golden and crispy on the bottom (don’t stop cooking too soon!), about 1 to 2 minutes, reducing the heat if necessary to prevent burning the tortilla. Flip it and cook until the second side is golden and crispy.
