Delicious Egg Salad Quesadilla

This Sunday is Easter, so chances are you may end up with a few hard boiled eggs at your house that need to be to eaten up. Today, I have a delicious recipe to share with you that will have all of those extra hard boil eggs gone in no time. 



I came up with this recipe one day when I was thinking of making myself an egg salad sandwich, but I was in the mood for something warm and cheesy rather than just your average egg salad between two slices of bread. And that's how I came up with this Egg Salad Quesadilla recipe. This recipe is really simple and I probably don't need to explain how I made it in too much detail, but I'm going to anyway.


-Ingredients to make one quesadilla-

- 2 Hard Boiled Eggs 
- 1/4 C Mayo
-1 Tbs Mustard
- 1 large Tortillia
-1/2  C Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1/2 C Spinach
- Salt - Pepper - Paprika

-Directions- 

Peel two hard boiled eggs, place them in a small bowl, and mashed them up a bit with a fork. 
Add mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix together and set aside.  

Next, place a large tortilla in a fry pan, sprinkle on the shredded cheddar cheese, and cook over medium heat. When the cheese is melted and the tortilla is lightly crispy, transfer to a plate. 

Add the egg salad mixture and spinach to the tortilla.

(Note: I wasn't sure if I should call this a taco or a quesadilla, because normally with a quesadilla you add a second tortilla, but instead I just used one. And a soft taco is normally rolled up).


Fold the tortilla over and cut in half. 


So what would you call this; a taco, or a quesadilla?


Either way, You can just call it delicious! This is definitely not your grandma's egg salad sandwich -that's for sure. 


I'm looking forward to Easter and eating these for a week straight :) 
So, what do you think? Are you wanting to give these a try?  Would you add anything or do anything differently? I'd love to hear your thoughts in a comment below.
or come chat with me on Facebook & Instagram.

Thanks for stopping by,

Emily

DIY Lighted Peace Sign Wreath

Image
I have spent the whole last week decking our halls for Christmas and working on a ton of little projects. And so today I am  happy to finally be able to sit down at my computer and share something with you. I made this festive lighted peace sign wreath and hung it up in my bedroom window. Every year I like to get a little crafty and come up with a fun and unique projects to add something extra to our home for the season. This wreath actually didn't cost me a penny to make. I made it one afternoon with items I already had on hand. I'm just in love with how cool it turned out.  So to make my peace sign wreath, I took a piece of thick cardboard and laid it on the floor.  This cardboard was from a large package I once received and I kept the box in our garage knowing that one day I'd have a use for it. Next, I laid my rattan mirror (from Target) on top of the piece of cardboard to trace out a circle.  Any large circular item you have laying around your home should work f...

Painted Bunk Beds and Armoire in My Boy's Room

Image
I just posted my boy's back to school Bedroom Makeover,  Did you catch it? If not, you can see it HERE .   So as I had mentioned, the biggest change I made to their bedroom was that I debunked their bunk beds and painted them, as well as the armoire in the room, a navy blue color. So here is the before: I'm sure these beds look familiar to you just because these seem to be a standard set that are just great for growing families. We bought these bunk beds years ago at Shopko.  They have worked out just fine for our two boys, although, eventually we would like to buy something a little more solid that is designed for older boys. Until we get new beds, these ones work just fine. But I was really wanting to give them a new look  because I was getting tiered of the orange wood color and so I decided to paint them. The armoire once belonged to my mother-in-law and it too was the same orange wood color and so I decided to paint it along with the beds. Here are the steps I t...
