    The Hangover Quesadilla

    The inspiration for the hangover quesadilla is from a restaurant where I live called Lucky 13. Sadly they do not have this on their menu anymore and they called it the Hangover quesadilla (I shared this recipe back in 2015). Perfect the next day when you're hungover.

    My family loves to play Bingo and this place also serves punch bowls and by the time I actually got this quesadilla for breakfast I was hungover. lol

    Booze can do that to you!  I remember the quesadilla having eggs, cheese, sausage, bacon, and red bell peppers in it, and I thought that would be super easy to make at home. Once you have all the ingredients cooked (I just did everything in one pan), you can grill the quesadilla on a griddle or even air fry it if you have one of those handy kitchen appliances.

    Ingredients needed for the Hangover Quesadilla

    • Flour Tortillas  The Carb Counter tortillas from Mission work great for these, or large burrito size tortillas.
    • Eggs - The best type of eggs you can buy at the store are organic or free-range eggs, while others may prefer eggs from specific breeds of chickens
    • Sausage - use your favorite - I used Jimmy Dean Turkey sausage crumbles because they are quick to cook. 
    • Bacon  -  Turkey bacon or regular bacon, I also like to use the precooked bacon that you just pop in the microwave to cook it.
    • Condiments - jarred salsa, sour cream
    • Topping options - sliced avocado, chopped scallions, chopped cilantro
    • See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements. 

    How to make the Hangover Quesadilla 

    To print the full recipe please see the recipe card below. 

    Step 1 Spray a non-stick pan with cooking spray. Let the pan heat up a bit until it's warm over medium high heat.

    Step 2 Whisk the eggs in the bowl with a fork and some chopped chives. I usually just eyeball it and add in some pepper. Cook the eggs until they're scrambled and using a heat proof spatula to clean up the eggs in the pan. Spray the pan again with cooking spray.

    Step 3 Place one of the tortillas on the pan, then the cheese, sausage, diced bacon, and scrambled egg. Add some more cheese on top of that if you wish. Then the other flour tortilla. Cook the flour tortilla until its golden brown on the bottom. Flip it over and cook the other side like that until everything in the middle is warmed through. Garnish with sour cream and serve with salsa.

    How do I store leftovers?

    Always store leftovers in clean, food-grade containers. The type of container doesn’t really matter. Use zip lock, glass, plastic,  whatever!  Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container.
