Chef'S Tip:
To grill quesadillas, spray 1 side of each tortilla with nonstick cooking spray. Place 2 tortillas, sprayed side down, on work surface; top each with 1⁄4 cup cheese, half the egg mixture, 1⁄4 cup cheese and a second tortilla, sprayed side up. Grill quesadillas on hot grill rack over medium heat 5 minutes or until cheese melts and grill marks appear, turning once
