A quick and healthy Mediterranean-inspired quesadilla recipe made with spinach, tomato, red onion, mozzarella, and feta cheese—ready in just 15 minutes for a flavorful lunch or dinner.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 3 quesadillas

Ingredients

1 diced tomato (grape/cherry or plum)

⅓ cup diced red onion

1 cup chopped spinach

½ cup feta cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

3 burrito-style flour tortillas

Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine tomato, red onion, chopped spinach, feta, mozzarella, and a sprinkle of pepper.
  2. Place ⅓ of the filling on one half of each tortilla and fold in half. Add extra mozzarella if desired.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled pan or griddle over medium heat.
  4. Cook each quesadilla for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula until golden and cheese is melted.
  5. Remove from heat, let cool for about 5 minutes, then slice into 3–4 pieces and serve.

Notes

  • No added salt is necessary—feta cheese is naturally salty.
  • Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days; reheat in a toaster for extra crispiness.
  • Swap flour tortillas for gluten-free versions if needed.
  • Vegan version: use vegan mozzarella and vegan feta.
  • Add protein by including cooked shredded chicken.
