Description
Delightful quesadillas filled with mozzarella, feta, fresh vegetables, and Mediterranean flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
- ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- ½ cup pitted Kalamata olives, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (red or yellow)
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Olive oil, for cooking
- Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Chop the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and bell pepper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, bell pepper, oregano, and garlic powder. Mix well.
- In a large skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat.
- Place one tortilla in the skillet. Spoon a generous amount of the filling onto one half of the tortilla, leaving space around the edges.
- Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom side is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula. Cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the cooked quesadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Cut each quesadilla into wedges and arrange them on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of cheese to your preference.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
