# Ingredients:
→ Quesadilla Assembly
01 -
4 small or 2 large flour tortillas
02 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
03 -
1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
04 -
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
05 -
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
06 -
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
07 -
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
08 -
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
09 -
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped, optional
# Steps:
01 -
Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped spinach, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes if using. Sauté for approximately 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
02 -
Place the tortillas flat on a clean surface. On one side of each tortilla, sprinkle half the mozzarella and half the feta cheese. Distribute chopped parsley if desired. Spoon an even layer of the cooked spinach mixture over the cheese. Top with the remaining feta and mozzarella.
03 -
Fold each tortilla in half to enclose the filling, pressing down gently. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook one quesadilla at a time for 2 to 3 minutes per side until both sides are golden brown and crisp, ensuring cheese is melted throughout.
04 -
Transfer cooked quesadillas to a cutting board. Slice each into wedges and serve immediately with Greek yogurt, tzatziki, or preferred dipping sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
For optimal crispiness, cook quesadillas in a dry skillet without additional oil after folding.
