Instructions

In a bowl, combine diced tomato, diced red onion, chopped spinach, feta cheese, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix well.
Place ⅓ of the filling on one side of each tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling.
Heat a small amount of oil in a large flat pan or on a griddle over medium heat.
Transfer the tortillas to the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes on each side, pressing down with a spatula, until each side is lightly browned and the cheese is melted.
Cut each quesadilla into 4 slices and serve with your choice of toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, or pico de gallo.

Notes
