Breakfast gets the crispy, golden treatment in these hearty handheld quesadillas. Softly scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, and sauteed peppers and onions get folded into tortillas with plenty of melty cheddar, then griddled until shatteringly crisp. Cut into wedges and served with salsa, sour cream, or hot sauce, they are perfect for feeding a hungry crew on a lazy weekend morning or for an easy breakfast-for-dinner.

Directions
Directions
- Heat one side of your Blackstone griddle (or a large skillet) over medium heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter and cook the peppers and onions for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Melt the remaining butter on the griddle and cook the eggs until softly scrambled. Avoid overcooking—they'll continue cooking inside the quesadilla.
- Stir the chopped bacon into the scrambled eggs.
- Lay the tortillas on the griddle.
- Sprinkle half of each tortilla with cheddar cheese.
- Add the egg and bacon mixture.
- Top with the sautéed peppers and onions.
- Finish with another generous layer of cheddar cheese.
- Fold each tortilla in half.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy with the cheese completely melted.
- Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately with salsa, sour cream, avocado, or your favorite hot sauce.
