Sure! After you make a bunch, individually wrap each one in parchment paper and a large zip-top bag.
To reheat, remove the zip-top bag and reheat the quesadilla (still wrapped in parchment) in a microwave oven on medium power for 1-2 minutes. Check for doneness and return to the microwave for additional time if needed.
The easy instructions:
- Place 6 - 6" flour tortillas on a prepared baking sheet.
- Evenly spread shredded cheese over each tortilla.
- Top the cheesy layer with fried eggs.
- Top the fried egg with pre-cooked sausage crumbles.
- Layer more shredded cheese over the crumbles.
- Top each quesadilla with the final flour tortillas.
- Fry each tortilla in olive oil until golden, on both sides.
- Enjoy!
