Ingredients:
- 1 whole-grain or low-carb tortilla (choose a brand with lower SmartPoints)
- 1/2 cup egg whites or egg substitute
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons diced red onion
- 2 tablespoons diced mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons reduced-fat shredded cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray
Instructions:
- Prepare Vegetables: Dice the bell peppers, tomatoes, red onion, and mushrooms.
- Cook Vegetables: In a non-stick skillet coated with cooking spray, sauté the diced vegetables until they are softened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Scramble Eggs: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the egg whites or egg substitute to the other side. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked.
- Assemble Quesadilla: Lay the whole-grain or low-carb tortilla on a flat surface. Place the cooked vegetables and scrambled eggs on one half of the tortilla. Sprinkle the reduced-fat shredded cheese over the mixture.
- Fold and Cook: Fold the tortilla in half, creating a half-moon shape. Return the quesadilla to the skillet and cook on both sides until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Once the quesadilla is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it cool for a moment. Slice it into wedges and serve.
Notes:
- You can customize the vegetables based on your preferences.
- Choose a tortilla that fits within your SmartPoints budget.
- Be mindful of the quantity of cheese used to control the point values.
