Description

Easy Cheese Spinach Breakfast Quesadilla that boosts your morning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Fresh spinach (Use baby spinach for tender leaves.)
  • 1 cup Shredded cheese (A mix of cheddar and mozzarella.)
  • 4 oz Cream cheese (Adds richness and helps bind the filling.)
  • 1 clove Minced garlic (Enhances flavor.)
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper
  • 4 pcs Flour tortillas (Medium-sized, soft tortillas.)
  • 1 tbsp Butter or olive oil (For greasing the pan.)

Instructions

  1. Warm oil and garlic in a skillet over medium heat. Add spinach and cook 2 minutes, stirring until wilted and vibrant green.
  2. Stir in cream cheese, shredded cheddar, and mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper, cooking 1 minute until fully melted and creamy.
  3. Place a flour tortilla in a clean, dry skillet over medium-low heat. Warm 30 seconds per side until pliable and lightly toasted.
  4. Spoon the spinach–cheese filling onto one half of the tortilla. Fold the other side over and press gently to seal.
  5. Add a touch of butter or oil around the edges. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cheese bubbles.
  6. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest 1 minute, then slice into wedges. Serve warm.
