Ingredients

• 2 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
• 2 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 cup Low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon (for spraying, as needed) Olive oil cooking spray
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Place a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 2

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel and place it back on the heat. Spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 4

Lay one whole wheat tortilla flat in the skillet. Sprinkle half of the low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the tortilla.

Step 5

Spread the sautéed spinach evenly over the cheese layer.

Step 6

Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the spinach, then top with the second tortilla.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and crisp. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Allow it to cool for a minute before slicing into wedges.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat spinach quesadilla!
