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)

½ cup corn (canned or frozen)

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

¼ teaspoon chili powder (optional for a 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, chili powder (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Melt the Cheese: In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place a tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.

      Add the Veggie Mixture: Spread a quarter of the veggie filling evenly over the cheese. Top with another layer of the remaining cheese.

        Toast the Tortilla: Fold the tortilla in half and press down gently. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the cheese has melted and the tortilla is golden brown. Remove from the pan and repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.

          Slice and Serve: Once all quesadillas are cooked, allow them to cool slightly before slicing them into strips or rolls. Serve warm with salsa on the side for dipping.

            Pack for Lunch: To keep them fresh, wrap each quesadilla roll in parchment paper or place them in an airtight container.
