Description

A delicious twist on a classic quesadilla featuring Mediterranean flavors with spinach, feta, mozzarella, and red onion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach (chopped)
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 small tomato (diced)

  4. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add olive oil and heat.
  5. Place the filled tortilla in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even melting and browning.
  6. Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then slice into wedges and serve.
