serves 2-3
Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 small corn tortillas
• 1 cup packed fresh spinach
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• Leaves from 8 stems cilantro, chopped (1/4 cup)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 cup grated manchego or mozzarella cheese
• Sea salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation​
Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. When it is hot but not smoking, place 2 tortillas in the skillet or on the griddle; in the order they are listed, top each tortilla equally with spinach, onion, cilantro, cumin and cheese. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Top each tortilla with one of the remaining tortillas. Cook for 3 minutes on each side or until the cheese has melted, pressing lightly to make sure that the tortillas hold together and are browned in spots. Remove from the heat.
Cut each quesadilla into quarters. Serve warm.
