Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Low-carb tortillas
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Place one low-carb tortilla on a clean surface. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly across the tortilla.
Layer the wilted spinach over the cream cheese spread, followed by the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Top with the second tortilla to form a quesadilla sandwich.
Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the assembled quesadilla onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, until golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden and crispy.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for 1 minute. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice it into wedges.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb spinach quesadilla!
