Ingredients

Servings4

Yields 4 servings

  • (4) large flour tortillas
  • (1) bell pepper, diced
  • (1) small onion, diced
  • (1) small zucchini, diced
  • (1 cup) baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • (4) large eggs
  • (1 cup) shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • (1 tbsp) olive oil
  • (1/2 tsp) garlic powder
  • (1/2 tsp) paprika
  • (1/2 tsp) salt
  • (1/4 tsp) black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a skillet, heat (1 tbsp) olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the (1) diced onion and (1) diced bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Stir in the (1) diced zucchini and cook for another 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the (1 cup) baby spinach and continue to sauté until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Season with (1/2 tsp) garlic powder, (1/2 tsp) paprika, (1/2 tsp) salt, and (1/4 tsp) black pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, whisk together the (4) large eggs until well combined. Pour the eggs into the same skillet over medium heat, scrambling until just set, about 3 minutes.

  6. 6

    In each of the (4) flour tortillas, layer equal amounts of the sautéed vegetables, scrambled eggs, and (1 cup) shredded cheese, dividing evenly. Fold the tortillas in half to create quesadillas.

  7. 7

    Wipe out the skillet and place it back on the heat. Cook each quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden and the cheese is melted.

  8. 8

    Slice the quesadillas into wedges and serve warm.
