I made these cheesy quesadilla for my family last weekend. A perfect lazy Sunday morning meal. This KP original recipe makes 4 quesadilla, so cook for a crowd!
Ingredients:

Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
Dash of Tabasco
12 strips bacon, chopped
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tablespoons fresh chives, chopped

Directions:
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Cook chopped bacon, 10 minutes or until crispy. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon pieces to a paper towel lined plate. Set aside.
- Drain fat from skillet, leaving about 1 teaspoon in skillet.
- Lower heat to medium.
- Melt butter in same skillet.
- Crack eggs into skillet and scramble. Cook 8-10 minutes, until desired doneness. Season with salt, pepper, and Tabasco. Set aside to keep warm.
- Spray a separate non stick skillet with Pam cooking spray. Heat over medium high heat.

- Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese.
- Top with a quarter of the egg mixture.
- Add a quarter of the crumbled bacon.
- Place another tortilla on top and gently press together.

- Cook 5-7 minutes.
- Using a large spatula, carefully turn quesadilla over.
