Description
Cheesy Spinach & Feta Quesadillas are a quick and delicious meal option, perfect for any time of the day.
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 8 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sour cream or salsa for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for about 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.
- Heat a separate skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and spoon about 1/4 of the cheese and spinach mixture onto one half of the tortilla.
- Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Serve warm with sour cream or salsa if desired.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños to the cheese mixture.
- For a healthier option, use whole wheat tortillas and add additional vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
