Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup diced ham
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli florets
  • 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 4-inch whole wheat tortilla
  • 1/2 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 4 tangerines, peeled and segmented

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in ham and broccoli until broccoli is tender and bright green, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add eggs to the skillet and cook, stirring gently using a silicone or heat-proof spatula, until they just begin to set; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Continue cooking until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in green onions.
  4. Layer half of each tortilla with the egg mixture; sprinkle with cheese. Fold in half and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Place into oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5-6 minutes.
  6. Place quesadillas, raspberries, blueberries and tangerines into meal prep containers.*

Notes:

*Refrigerate for up to 3 days. The quesadillas can be reheated in the microwave in 30-second intervals until heated through.
