Mexican · Main course · 15 min total

A crispy tortilla filled with melty cheese and sautéed spinach, perfect for a quick lunch or snack.

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella or Oaxaca cheese
• Optional: salsa, sour cream, or guacamole for serving

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
2. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
3. Place one tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half the cheese evenly over the tortilla.
4. Spread half the spinach mixture over the cheese. Top with another tortilla.
5. Cook until bottom is golden and cheese starts to melt, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook until other side is golden and cheese fully melted.
6. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Cut into wedges and serve with desired toppings.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add a pinch of cumin or chili powder to the spinach.
• Serve immediately for best texture.
• You can use corn tortillas for a gluten-free option, but cook them a bit longer.
