Equipment

• Knife
• Cutting board
• Measuring cups and spoons

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture

Crack the eggs into a medium bowl.

Add:

• Whole milk
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Garlic powder
• Dried oregano

Whisk vigorously for about 1 minute until the eggs are light and frothy.

This helps create a soft and fluffy omelet.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling

In a separate bowl, combine:

• Diced tomatoes
• Crumbled feta
• Mozzarella
• Parmesan
• Basil
• Green onions
• Parsley

Drizzle with olive oil and toss gently to combine.

Set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Omelet

Heat the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

Pour in the egg mixture.

Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently pull the cooked edges toward the center with a spatula, letting the uncooked eggs flow outward.

Continue cooking until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly soft on top, about 3–4 minutes.

Remove from the heat.

Step 4: Assemble the Quesadilla

Place one tortilla on a clean work surface.

Spread half of the cheese and tomato mixture evenly over one side of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edge.

Carefully place the cooked omelet over the filling.

Top the omelet with the remaining tomato mixture.

Cover with the second tortilla.

Press gently to hold everything together.

Step 5: Cook the Quesadilla

Wipe the skillet clean if necessary.

Heat the butter or olive oil over medium heat.

Carefully place the assembled quesadilla into the skillet.

Cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and crispy.

Using a large spatula or plate, carefully flip the quesadilla.

Cook the second side for another 3–4 minutes, until crisp and the cheeses are melted.

Reduce the heat if the tortilla browns too quickly.

Step 6: Rest

Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board.

Allow it to rest for 2–3 minutes before slicing.

This helps the filling set slightly, making it easier to cut and serve.

Step 7: Garnish

Sprinkle with:

• Fresh basil ribbons
• Extra crumbled feta
• Parmesan cheese
• Freshly cracked black pepper
• Chopped parsley

For a bright finish, drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Step 8: Serve

Cut into wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Serve warm with:

• Salsa
• Greek yogurt
• Tzatziki
• Sour cream
• Avocado slices
• Fresh fruit
• Mixed green salad
• Roasted potatoes

Chef’s Tips

• Remove excess seeds from the tomatoes to keep the quesadilla crisp.
• Use room-temperature feta for a creamier texture.
• Cook the omelet gently over low heat so it stays soft and tender.
• Let the quesadilla rest before cutting to prevent the filling from spilling out.
• Fresh basil should be added just before serving for the brightest flavor.
