Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 whole wheat tortillas
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream (optional, for serving)
  • Salsa (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until soft and fragrant (about 2-3 minutes).
  • Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release moisture and become soft (about 5-7 minutes). Season with salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
  • Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Spoon an equal amount of the spinach and mushroom mixture onto one half of each tortilla.
  • Top with the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
  • Fold the tortillas in half, covering the filling. Place them on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Remove from the oven and slice each quesadilla into wedges.
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a side of salsa, if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add some sliced jalapeños to the filling.
  • You can use any kind of cheese you prefer or a blend for extra flavor.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.
