Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Optional: sour cream and salsa for serving
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until mushrooms are tender and liquid evaporates, about 5-6 minutes. Add fresh spinach to the skillet, cooking until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove mixture from skillet and set aside.
- Wipe skillet clean and return to medium heat. Brush one side of a tortilla with olive oil and place it oiled side down in the skillet. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the tortilla. Spoon one-fourth of the spinach and mushroom mixture over the cheese, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons of crumbled feta cheese on top. Place another tortilla on top and brush the top with olive oil.
- Cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and cheese begins to melt, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook until the second side is golden brown and cheese is fully melted, another 3-4 minutes. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling to make 4 quesadillas.
- Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve hot, optionally with sour cream and salsa on the side.
