Description

These Mediterranean Quesadillas combine fresh spinach, tangy feta, creamy mozzarella, and crisp red onion inside warm, crispy flour tortillas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 small tomato, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella, crumbled feta, chopped spinach, diced tomato, thinly sliced red onion, and black pepper. Mix everything well to create a uniform filling.
  2. Lay one flour tortilla flat on a surface and spread one-fourth of the filling mixture evenly over half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over the filling to create a semi-circle.
  3. Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the tablespoon of olive oil, allowing it to warm but not smoke.
  4. Place the folded quesadilla carefully into the skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the bottom turns golden brown and crisp.
  5. Flip the quesadilla carefully using a spatula and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes until the tortilla is golden and both sides are crispy.
  6. Remove the quesadilla from heat, slice into wedges, and serve warm to enjoy the melty cheese and fresh vegetable filling.

Notes

  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling.
