Quick and crispy Mediterranean-inspired quesadillas filled with fresh spinach, tangy feta, and optional savory add-ins, ready in just 20 minutes.
Ingredients
4 medium tortillas (flour, whole wheat, or gluten-free)
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp olive oil or butter (for cooking)
Optional: 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
Optional: 1/4 cup black olives (sliced)
Optional: 1/2 cup cooked grilled chicken (diced)
Instructions
- Prep spinach, crumble feta, and prepare any add-ins.
- Place a tortilla flat, arrange spinach and feta on one half, add extras if using, then fold to close.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium with a thin layer of oil or butter.
- Cook quesadilla 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
- Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm with your choice of dip.

Wilt spinach with garlic and red pepper flakes for a spicier version.
Whole-wheat tortillas add a nutty flavor and more fiber.
Pair with tzatziki, hummus, or yogurt-lemon sauce for dipping.
