Servings: persons

7 large eggs
2 tablespoons whipping cream (or use 18% cream)
salt and pepper
2 medium green onions, finely chopped
1 small bell pepper (red or green, seeded and finely chopped)
5 pickled jalapeno peppers, slices chopped (or to taste)
3 tablespoons butter (or to taste)
¾ cup ranch dressing (I use Hidden Valley ranch for this)
¾ cup prepared salsa
1 pinch salt (optional)
shredded cheddar cheese (you will need about 3 cups or to taste, or use a Mexi-blend cheese)
4 (10 inch) flour tortillas
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup diced cooked ham

1
In a small bowl stir together the Ranch dressing with the salsa; mix to combine then season with a small amount of salt if desired; cover and chill.
2
In a bowl whisk together the eggs and whipping cream until well blended; season with salt and pepper to taste.
3
Add in the green onions, bell pepper and chopped pickled jalapenos; mix to combine.
4
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
5
Add in the egg mixture; cook without stirring.
6
Lift the eggs on the bottom using a spatula to allow more batter to run along the sides of the pan to cook.
7
Cover the skillet and continue to cook until the eggs are thickened and set but still moist (do not stir and make certain not to overcook the eggs).
8
Slide the eggs onto a large glass plate; set aside.
9
Sprinkle about 1/3 cup grated cheese over each tortilla, then top with a fourth of egg mixture.
10
Sprinkle with crumbled cooked bacon and then cubed ham.
11
Top with about 1/4 cup shredded cheese, then fold the tortilla in half over the filling, press gently to seal.
12
Heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat in a skillet or coat with cooking spray.
13
Using a large spatula carefully add in one or two quesadillas at a time and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, or until light golden brown.
14
Serve with the salsa mixture.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
