Quesadillas are so easy to make and I've probably had just about everything I can think of in one...but it has never dawned on me to try it with breakfast in mind. I'm not sure what Chihuahau cheese is...but with caramelized onion and peppers mixed into the eggs, this has to be amazing.

This is incredibly easy to make, and even though it's the middle of the afternoon, I want one of these right now. We have just about everything needed for this and I'd serve this with some fresh salsa as well as a bit of sour cream. Thanks for posting this along with the video which really shows how simple to make and delicious this is.
