Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 medium flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped Can swap with kale or arugula.
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded Use half for filling, half for topping
  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or basil for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the sliced red onions and cook until they become soft and fragrant, roughly 3-5 minutes.
  2. Add in the spinach, cooking until it wilts down. Season with salt and pepper.
Assembling
  1. Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface. Sprinkle half the mozzarella on one side of each tortilla.
  2. Top the cheese with the sautéed spinach and onions, followed by a sprinkle of feta, and finish with more mozzarella. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape.
Cooking
  1. Wipe down the skillet or use the same one. Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Serving
  1. Take the quesadilla out and let it rest for a minute before slicing it into wedges. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with salsa or a side salad.
