- 3 tsp. salted butter
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 cup fresh spinach (chopped if large leaves)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese, divided
- 1 8-inch tortilla
- 3-5 thin tomato slices
Prep everything first. Slice, measure, shred—this moves fast. Melt butter in 8-inch pan over medium-low heat.
In a small bowl, beat eggs with salt, pepper, and oregano. Pour eggs into the pan.
Immediately add spinach and 1/4 cup cheese on top of the eggs. Place tortilla on top.
Once the eggs are set enough to hold together, carefully flip the whole thing over. Add tomato slices and remaining 1/4 cup cheese to one half. Fold the quesadilla in half over the filling.
Cover with a lid and cook another minute or two until heated through and cheese is melted. Cut into 3 or 4 pieces. Enjoy!
