Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 0.25 tablespoon oil
- 8 ounces artichoke hearts drained and chopped
- 6 ounces baby spinach leaves
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 8 count flour tortillas 7 or 8 inch
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
Instructions
Make Spinach Mixture
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add in the chopped artichoke pieces and cook for one minute. Reduce heat to medium, add in the baby spinach, and cook until wilted, turning often.
- Mix in the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and shredded Parmesan cheeses, and let them melt entirely while stirring. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
Assemble Quesadillas
- Spread about 0.25 cup of the spinach artichoke mixture evenly over four of the flour tortillas. Top each spread tortilla with a second tortilla to create four full quesadillas.
Cook Quesadillas
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place one quesadilla in the hot skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until crisp and golden brown; be careful not to burn them.
- Remove the cooked quesadilla from the skillet and repeat the process for the remaining quesadillas. Once all quesadillas are cooked, cut each into 4ths and serve immediately.
