➕ 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

METHOD 💥
1️⃣. Whisk together the eggs and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl.
2️⃣. Add a dash of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook, undisturbed, until a thin layer of cooked egg appears around the edge of the skillet. Using a rubber spatula gently push/move the eggs around the pan until fluffy and barely set, about 2 minutes. Immediately remove from the pan.
3️⃣. Lay the wraps flat on a clean counter. On the top of 2 wraps, evenly layer the cheeses, eggs and bacon. Add a handful of greens (spinach, arugula, etc) on top. Then lay the remaining 2 wraps on top.
4️⃣. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, place the quesadillas, one at a time, in the pan and cook until golden on each side, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once done slice in half. Serve topped with avocado salsa.
5️⃣. To make the salsa, combine all ingredients in a bowl.
