Green Goddess Pesto Quesadillas || Italian Spinach Pesto Melts
Ingredients
1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
3 cups baby spinach
2 spinach wraps (or sub large tortillas )
2 tablespoons Butter (spread onto one side of each wrap/tortilla)
2 tablespoons Pesto (or sub tube basil paste)
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese
1⁄2 an avocado (peeled, pitted, and sliced)
1⁄4 cup Pistachios (crushed in a ziploc, or coarsely chopped)
1⁄3 cup micro greens
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese
Instructions
In a large skillet on medium high, saute the garlic and spinach for approximately 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Spinach should be softened/wilted, but not browned or burned. Remove from heat and set the spinach aside on a small plate.
Start to build your quesadilla in the skillet: first a tortilla with buttered-side down, then spread on the basil pesto/paste. Add 1 cup of cheese, sprinkled evenly. Then add spinach, avocado, pistachios, and micro greens. Top with remaining cheese and then second tortilla buttered-side facing up.
Turn the stove on to medium heat, and cook each side in the skillet for approximately 4 minutes --- tortilla should get slightly golden brown and cheese should be melted inside.
