milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is lower in calories, and water can be used for a lighter version.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Chop onion, red pepper, and green onion.

Saute chopped vegetables in a pan until onion is translucent.

In a bowl, break 3 eggs and add 1/2 cup milk (using heavy cream instead of milk if needed).

Add sautéed vegetables to the egg mixture.

Crumble in 8 ounces of queso fresco and 6 ounces of quesadilla cheese, then stir to combine.

Add 1 can of kernel corn and 1 can of creamed corn to the mixture and stir until combined.

Pour the batter into a greased baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, checking to ensure it remains moist.
