Preheat oven to 425°. Whisk together first 3 ingredients. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains. Remove from heat.
Place 2 tortillas on a baking sheet. Spread with beans; top with eggs, salsa, cheese and remaining tortillas. Melt remaining butter; brush over tops.
Bake until golden brown and cheese is melted, 10-12 minutes. If desired, serve with sour cream and additional salsa.
Test Kitchen tips
Brushing the tortillas with butter isn’t essential, but you’ll love the butter flavor.
Baking quesadillas in the oven instead of on the stovetop makes it easy to make more than one at a time and, since they don’t need to be flipped, keeps the filling from falling out.
Health Tip: Butter adds richness to these quesadillas, but it’s not essential. Cook the eggs in a few spritzes of cooking spray and don’t butter the tortillas. You’ll decrease the fat by about one-third.

The only modifications I made to this recipe was that I added onions and green peppers to the egg mixture. I know that salsa have these two ingredients in them, but we like onions/peppers cooked in with the eggs. I also added sliced avocado. Yummy. I cooked these on my panini press. Easy.
