Description
Delicious Spinach and Feta Quesadillas – a quick, healthy main dish with savory spinach and tangy feta, perfect for lunch or dinner. Simple and tasty.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium tortillas (flour, whole wheat, or gluten-free)
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
Instructions
- Prep: Start by rinsing 2 cups of fresh spinach under cool water. Chop the spinach finely and set it aside. Crumble 1 cup of feta cheese into a bowl. If you choose to use optional add-ins, prepare those as well (¼ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes, ¼ cup sliced black olives, and ½ cup diced cooked grilled chicken).
- Assemble: Take one tortilla and place it on a plate or clean surface. On one half of the tortilla, spread a portion of the chopped spinach and crumbled feta cheese evenly. If using optional add-ins, sprinkle them on top of the spinach and cheese. Carefully fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently to seal.
- Cook: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter. Once heated, place the folded tortilla into the skillet. Cook each side for approximately 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. You may need to adjust the heat to prevent burning.
- Slice & Serve: After cooking, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Allow it to cool for a minute before slicing it into wedges. Serve warm with your favorite dips like salsa or guacamole!
