• Prep Time: 15 minutes
• Cook Time: 15 minutes
• Total Time: 30 minutes
• Servings: 4
• Skill Level: Easy

• 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick

1. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, cooking until it wilts down, about 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Lay one tortilla flat and sprinkle half of it evenly with a mix of crumbled feta and shredded mozzarella cheese. Top with the spinach and onion mixture, then fold the tortilla over to form a half-moon shape.
4. Heat a clean, dry skillet over medium heat. Place the folded tortilla in the skillet and cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about another 2 minutes.
5. Remove from skillet and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
6. Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm with your favorite salsa or yogurt dip.

• For an extra Mediterranean twist, add a handful of chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the filling.
• If fresh spinach isn’t available, frozen spinach (thawed and well-drained) works just as well.
• Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like cheddar or Gouda for a unique flavor profile.
• To make this recipe gluten-free, simply use gluten-free tortillas.

These quesadillas are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet over low heat to maintain their crispiness.

• Mozzarella cheese can be replaced with Monterey Jack or a mild cheddar for a different texture and taste.
• If you’re out of fresh spinach, a handful of kale or Swiss chard works just as well.

Serve these quesadillas with a side of fresh guacamole, a tangy tomato salsa, or a creamy cucumber-yogurt dip. Pair with a light and crisp lemonade or a cooling minty iced tea for a complete meal that refreshes and delights.
