Cuisine: Vegan , gluten-free

Ingredients

  • 1 Roma tomato (thinly sliced)
  • 3/4 cup fresh baby spinach
  • 1/4 cup Vegan Pesto (more/less as desired)
  • 1/2 cup vegan Mozzarella shreds (I like Follow Your Heart or Miyokos)
  • 1/4 cup vegan feta crumbles (optional)
  • 2 large tortillas (gluten-free if desired)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Spread a thin layer of pesto on one half of your tortilla.
  2. Over the pesto, add a light layer of mozzarella and feta (if using).
  3. Add tomato slices, spinach, and top with another layer of mozzarella cheese (to help "glue" it together).
  4. Carefully place the quesadilla on a skillet over medium heat. Let heat for about 5 minutes, flip, then heat for another 5 minutes or until cheese has melted and tortilla is slightly browned & crispy.
  5. Repeat the process for the second quesadilla.

Notes

  • Customize: Adjust the amounts as you see fit to better customize yours with the flavors you enjoy.
  • Spinach: The spinach wilts as it heats, so I often add extra.
