Ingredients
  

  • 2.0 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1.0 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1.0 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4.0 large flour tortillas
  • 2.0 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1.0 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 0.0 to taste salt and pepper
  • 0.0 as needed cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, shredded mozzarella, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Lay a tortilla on a flat surface. Evenly spread a portion of the spinach and feta mixture over half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Lightly brush both sides of each quesadilla with olive oil to enhance crispness.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place the quesadillas in the basket (you may need to work in batches). Cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Remove the quesadillas from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute. Cut into wedges and serve warm, with salsa or a traditional yogurt dip on the side.

Notes

Adjust spice level by adding more or fewer red pepper flakes.
