Breakfast sheet pan quesadilla recipes are also really budget-friendly. You can stretch the filling by adding more vegetables, cheese, or some breakfast meat, or adding in another egg or two. When I made these, they were about $1 per serving, which is way cheaper than trying to buy something similar at a convenience store or in the freezer section.
Tips for the Perfect Breakfast Sheet Pan Quesadilla
Scramble your eggs first, but pay attention to not over cook them as the whole sheet pan will be going in the oven to continue cooking.
Use parchment paper on the bottom of the sheet pan to make sure cleaning will be as quick and easy as the meal prep is. All you have to do is pick that up and toss it, otherwise make sure to really spray the sheet pan so the tortillas don’t stick.
You need to use enough tortillas to cover the entire bottom of the pan without cracks, so make sure they overlap, and then also have enough to cover the top of the sheet pan and fold over. If you don’t do this it doesn’t stay together as well, but will still taste delicious.
When you are baking these it may be helpful to have a second sheet pan available to put on top of the breakfast sheet pan quesadilla. This is to make sure the tortillas stay in place and it will help with the browning of the toritillas on top, makid it oh so delicious and crispy.
Meal Prep and Storage Tips for Breakfast Sheet Pan Quesadillas
To effectively meal prep this, make it on Sunday night. Then cut it into squares so you can easily package them and grab and go in the morning. Store these containers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
To reheat these delicious quesadillas, use the toaster oven, air fryer, or a microwave. If you use the toaster oven or air fryer it will re-crisp when you reheat, if you use the microwave it will go faster, do what your heart and your time allowed tells you.
You can also freeze these babies. Slice them, store them, and then reheat as needed.
To really get these to a new satisfying level, add a slice or two of avocado when you go to serve it or some guacamole.
