New year, new you, with cheesy breakfast quesadillas, of course!
I’m serious, guys. It’s week two of the new year and I have my breakfast prepped and ready to go for the week. And it’s my favorite kind of quesadillas – the ones you can have at 7AM with eggs, ham, broccoli and cheese.
But don’t worry – these won’t make you crash with a food coma! I promise. They’re hearty and filling, and they’re only 291 calories per serving, and that includes the fruit!
So who else is jumping on this meal prep train with me? If you are, this is just one of 115 recipes included in my meal prep cookbook, available February 5th!

Ham, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Quesadillas
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
- ½ cup shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese
- ½ cup raspberries
- ½ cup blueberries
- 4 tangerines, peeled and segmented
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 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.
- 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.
- Layer half of each tortilla with the egg mixture; sprinkle with cheese. Fold in half and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Place into oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5-6 minutes.
- Place quesadillas, raspberries, blueberries and tangerines into meal prep containers.*

These are yummy. I added a bit of sriracha 🙂 did you broil these, out of curiosity? My tortillas just browned right around the edges. I used whole wheat.
No, these were not broiled. 🙂
I just made these with different tortillas, but they didn’t brown at all. Any other ideas? Otherwise it’s delicious!
Did you use whole wheat tortilla?
I can’t stand broccoli. Any suggestions for another veggie? Spinach & mushroom?
My book is preordered. Can’t wait to receive it!
Spinach and/or mushrooms are great substitutes!
I haven’t seen 4 inch WW tortillas in the grocery store. What brand did you use?
My local grocery store carries them in the bakery aisle! 🙂
Any thoughts on doing a meal prep specific for for different diets? I am looking at starting a keto and I love meal prepping but no one out there has recipies for that.
TIA. Love your recipes, looking forward to the book.
I really have enjoyed your first cookbook. I really need to get on this meal prep bandwagon and I can’t wait to get your new cookbook to help me.
It’s the best!
Hey Im a college student and I love your meal prep so much. I now barely have a meal plan and have saved myself thousands of dollars by meal prepping. I could also lose weight too if I stopped snacking :b. I also preordered your book!
