Dig into this easy, cheesy Spinach Quesadillas inspired by the Mexican cuisine!
These spinach quesadillas are gooey, cheesy, delicious and incredibly easy to prepare. I always thought quesadillas are pretty darn difficult to make. But then came this recipe which I could whip up in a matter of minutes. I have used flour tortillas here, made from scratch. You can also use store bought ones. Cheese, tortilla, and spinach - all combined and melted together. It doesn't get easier than this.
Today was one of those days where I was sulking for no reason. Does this happen to you? This is the second time that I almost gave up during this A to Z Challenge. I had already prepared this dish, had clicked the photographs but I just didn't want to post or write or do anything. Anyway, at this eleventh hour, I have decided to get on with it. Thanks to the article on the A to Z Challenge official page - Don't Quit.
That said, here's the recipe for this easy peasy Spinach and Cheese Quesadillas.
