Ready, Set, Cook! Special Edition Contest Entry: I like this because its easy, fast, healthy and delicious! I always make a traditional breakfast quesadilla and this is a new twist on an old favorite. I use the sundried tomatoes found in the jar of oil, drain, rinse and pat dry. This takes away a lot of the calories while keeping the flavor. You can also add a dollop of tsasiki or plan non-fat greek yogurt. You may have extra filling leftover, in which case save it for tomorrow's breakfast! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 red bell pepper, chopped |
1/2 cup sun-dried tomato, cut into slivers |
2 cups fresh spinach |
