Description
Crispy golden quesadillas filled with sautéed spinach, feta, and mozzarella cheese. These easy Spinach and Feta Quesadillas are perfect for a quick lunch or light dinner.
Ingredients
- 4 small or 2 large tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes if using. Sauté for about 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted. Remove from heat.
2. Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. On one half of each tortilla, sprinkle half of the mozzarella and half of the feta cheese. Add the cooked spinach mixture and top with the remaining cheeses. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
3. Fold the tortillas over to create a half-moon shape and press gently.
4. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.
5. Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve warm with Greek yogurt, tzatziki, or your favorite dip.
Notes
For extra crispiness, lightly brush the outside of the tortillas with olive oil before cooking.
Add sun-dried tomatoes or sautéed mushrooms for extra flavor.
These quesadillas are best served immediately while hot and crispy.
