Today I have a new quesadilla recipe to share with you and this time it’s a Mediterranean take on them! You really can’t go wrong taking tortillas, stuffing them with cheese and other ingredients and toasting them until the cheese is all nice and melted, ooey gooey and good! These Mediterranean quesadillas start out with cheese, including feta, followed by spinach, artichokes, sundried tomatoes and kalamata olives along with romesco sauce for some smokey heat! I like to enjoy these, really stuffed, quesadillas either as snacks or as a light meal!

Heerlijk recept ! Al meer recepten van je gemaakt, altijd een succes. Nog een vraagje 1 van de tortilla’s was bij erg nat. Hoe kan ik dit voorkomen?

Is there a simple way to flip them? Mine was a disaster lol
kevin says
I like to put a plate on top of the quesadilla in the pan, hold the plate, flip the pan so that the plate is on the bottom and the quesadilla is on the plate with the uncooked side down, place the pan back on the burner, and slide the quesadilla from the plate back into the pan to cook the uncooked side.
