Spinach Quesadilla Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 ounces fresh baby spinach (about 4 cups)
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 small tomato, chopped
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese or Mexican cheese blend
• 1/4 cup reduced-fat ricotta cheese
• 6 flour tortillas (6 inches)
• Reduced-fat sour cream, optional

Directions

1. In a large nonstick skillet, cook and stir first six ingredients until spinach is wilted. Remove from heat; stir in cheeses.
2. Top half of each tortilla with spinach mixture; fold other half over filling. Place on a griddle coated with cooking spray; cook over medium heat until golden brown, 1-2 minutes per side. Cut quesadillas in half; if desired, serve with sour cream.

Health Tip: Use whole wheat tortillas and get almost twice the fiber per serving.
