Ingredients

Ingredients:

4 flour tortillas

1 cup fresh spinach (chopped)

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1 small tomato (diced)

1/4 cup red onion (thinly sliced)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil (for frying)


Instructions

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine mozzarella, feta, spinach, tomatoes, red onion, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.

  2. Lay one tortilla flat. Place one-fourth of the filling mixture onto half of the tortilla.

  3. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling.

  4. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add olive oil and heat.

  5. Place the filled tortilla in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even melting and browning.

  6. Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then slice into wedges and serve.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, swap flour tortillas with corn or gluten-free wraps.
  • For a vegan option, use plant-based mozzarella and feta cheese alternatives.
  • Feel free to add extra veggies like mushrooms, olives, or bell peppers for more flavor and nutrition.
  • To spice things up, add red pepper flakes or jalapeños.
