  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • 1 eggs hard boiled
  • 1/2 cup ham diced

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Lay one tortilla in skillet. Sprinkle grated cheese, ham, and eggs over tortilla. Then sprinkle another layer of cheese on. Top with remaining tortilla.
  • Fry in skillet until tortilla is golden brown. Carefully flip tortilla. Let me know if you figure out how to do this without spilling all the yummy inside ingredients! If you do spill...just scoop them up and put them back inside the tortilla!
