Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly and pat it dry.
Finely chop the garlic cloves.
Grate the mozzarella cheese and set it aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Season the spinach with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Mix well and remove from heat.
Place a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Sprinkle a quarter of the grated mozzarella cheese evenly over half of the tortilla.
Spoon a quarter of the cooked spinach mixture on top of the mozzarella cheese.
Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling and press down gently.
Repeat steps 8-10 for the remaining tortillas.
Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place a folded tortilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Repeat the cooking process for the rest of the tortillas.
Cut the tortillas into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy!
