Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

½ cup bell peppers, diced (any color for vibrant flavor)

½ cup corn (canned or frozen)

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

¼ teaspoon chili powder (optional for an extra kick)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup salsa (for dipping)

Instructions
 

Prep the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, diced bell peppers, corn, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder (if using). Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated and your filling is vibrant and colorful.

    Melt the Cheese: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once heated, lay one tortilla in the skillet, and evenly sprinkle half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the top, creating a cheesy base.

      Add the Veggie Mixture: Spoon a quarter of the prepared veggie filling over the cheese, spreading it out evenly. Top with a second layer of the remaining cheese to create a gooey, delicious center.

        Toast the Tortilla: Carefully fold the tortilla in half, pressing it down gently to compact the filling. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the cheese has completely melted and the tortilla is golden brown and crispy. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.

          Slice and Serve: Allow the quesadillas to cool slightly after cooking. Cut each quesadilla into strips or rolls for easy eating. Serve them warm with salsa on the side for dipping, enhancing the flavors.

            Pack for Lunch: For those on-the-go days, wrap each quesadilla roll in parchment paper or store them in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
