Ingredients

• 4 large Flour tortillas
• 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, diced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Place the tortillas on a clean, flat surface.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped spinach, diced cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and chopped parsley. Mix well.

Step 3

Season the mixture with ground black pepper and a pinch of salt, and stir to combine.

Step 4

Spread half of the cheese and vegetable mixture evenly onto one side of two tortillas. Place the remaining two tortillas on top to create a sandwich, pressing down gently.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, place one quesadilla in the skillet.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, ensuring the cheese inside melts completely.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the second quesadilla, adding the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet if needed.

Step 8

Remove the cooked quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing into quarters or sixths.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad.
