Quesadilla Ingredients

  • 1 bag fresh spinach 5 ounces
  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, finely diced optional
  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
  • ¼ cup feta cheese crumbles

Ranch Artichoke Dip

  • 1 cup Ranch dressing Any brand, e.g., Hidden Valley
  • 3-4 canned quartered artichokes

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Melt butter (or heat olive oil) in a large pan over medium heat. Once melted, add fresh spinach and cook for 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 45 seconds, stirring constantly.
  • Remove from heat, place cooked spinach on paper towels, and cover to remove excess moisture.
  • Lay a tortilla on a cutting board. Sprinkle half with ½ cup of shredded cheese, add half of the wilted spinach, sprinkle with half of the crumbled feta, and finish with another ½ cup of shredded cheese.
  • Fold the naked half of the tortilla over the side with fillings. Repeat for the second quesadilla.
  • Heat a large pan or griddle to medium heat and spritz with cooking spray.
  • Add quesadillas and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until crispy and golden.
  • Remove from heat, cut into four slices, and serve with Ranch Artichoke Dip.

Ranch Artichoke Dip

  • Add ranch dressing and canned artichokes to a blender and blend for 20-30 seconds until smooth.

Notes

For best results, make sure to remove excess moisture from the spinach to avoid soggy quesadillas.
