Description
Delight in these quick and easy Mediterranean quesadillas filled with spinach, feta, mozzarella, and red onion, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 flour tortillas
- 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)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, spinach, tomato, red onion, and black pepper. Mix well to create a colorful and fragrant filling.
- Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface and place one-fourth of the filling mixture on half of the tortilla. Fold it over to cover the delicious filling.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, letting it warm until it shimmers invitingly.
- Carefully place the filled tortilla in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until it’s golden brown and crisp.
- Flip the quesadilla gently and cook for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring both sides are nice and crispy.
- Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad.
Notes
Make-ahead advice: The filling can be prepared a day in advance. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For extra crispiness, brush the outside of the tortillas with olive oil before toasting.
