Ingredients
  

For the quesadillas
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese Can substitute with other cheeses
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 small zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
  2. Toss the zucchini, bell pepper, and onion with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.
Cooking
  1. Place one tortilla on the skillet and sprinkle half of the mozzarella evenly over it.
  2. Layer sautéed vegetables, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, feta, and optional greens on top of the cheese.
  3. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella over the filling and top with the second tortilla.
  4. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted.
  5. Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

These quesadillas can be paired with a fresh salad, guacamole, Greek yogurt, tzatziki, or lentil soup. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
