Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach (chopped) Use fresh spinach for best flavor.
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 small tomato (diced)
  • 1/4 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For cooking the tortillas.
  • Black pepper (to taste) Freshly ground is preferable.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, spinach, tomato, red onion, and black pepper. Mix well.
  2. Lay one tortilla flat and place one-fourth of the filling mixture on half of the tortilla. Fold it over to cover the filling.
Cooking
  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
  2. Place the filled tortilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Flip carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until both sides are crispy.
  4. Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

Serve warm with a side of salsa, sour cream, or a light salad. For added flavor, include fresh herbs. If storing leftovers, wrap them tightly and refrigerate for 2-3 days or freeze with parchment paper in between.
