Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 4 flour tortillas (8-inch)
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced (optional)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried oregano (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine chopped spinach, crumbled feta, shredded mozzarella, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2️⃣ Cook the Quesadillas: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. If using, sauté the sliced onions for 2-3 minutes until softened and golden. Add the spinach and cheese mixture to the pan and stir for about 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts and the cheese starts to melt. Remove from heat.
3️⃣ Assemble the Quesadillas: Lay 2 tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide the spinach-feta mixture between the two tortillas, spreading it evenly across one half of each tortilla. Top with the second tortilla to form a sandwich.
4️⃣ Cook the Quesadillas: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled quesadillas in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
5️⃣ Serve: Remove from the skillet, cut into wedges, and serve hot.
Notes
✔️ Add a few cherry tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor.
✔️ For a spicy kick, add some red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce.
✔️ Serve with sour cream or guacamole for dipping!
