# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
02 -
Combine the crumbled feta and shredded mozzarella cheeses in a small bowl.
03 -
Drizzle olive oil around the perimeter of the skillet to coat the cooking surface evenly.
04 -
Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle a quarter of the cheese mixture evenly over half of the tortilla. Layer spinach leaves, red onion slices, and sun-dried tomatoes on top.
05 -
Season the filling with salt and pepper to taste, then fold the tortilla over to form a half-moon shape.
06 -
Cook the filled tortilla for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
07 -
Repeat the assembly and cooking steps with the remaining tortillas and filling. Remove the cooked quesadillas from the skillet, slice into wedges, and serve hot with tzatziki sauce or plain Greek yogurt. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
