Breakfast Quesadillas

These quesadillas are a delicious way to break up the monotony of the typical bacon and egg breakfast.

Ingredients
4 medium whole-wheat tortillas
6 oz. bacon
4 eggs
salt and pepper
4 oz. Monterey Jack cheese
7.5 oz. black beans, rinsed
fat-free sour cream
Salsa (optional)

Directions
Place the tortillas in the oven; heat to 200 degrees F.
In a large nonstick skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
Leave about 1 tbsp. of bacon fat in skillet, reserving the rest of the fat.
Cook the eggs over easy in the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove eggs from heat.
On a work surface, lay out the torillas. Sprinkle each with 1/4 cup cheese, some of the beans, 1 egg, and some bacon strips. Fold tortillas to enclose.
Heat reserved bacon fat in skillet. Add the quesadillas to the skillet and cook, turning once, until cheese is melted.
Top each quesadilla with a dollop of sour cream and/or salsa before serving.
