Description
Spinach and Feta Quesadillas are quick and healthy delights packed with flavor and nutrients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sour cream or Greek yogurt (for serving)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed spinach, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Place one tortilla in the skillet over medium heat. Spread a quarter of the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over half of the tortilla.
- Fold the tortilla in half and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden and the cheese is melted.
- Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm with sour cream or Greek yogurt on the side.
Notes
- For added flavor, include chopped sun-dried tomatoes or olives in the filling.
- For a gluten-free option, use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
