Cooking Instructions
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush one side of a tortilla with olive oil.
- Place the oiled side down on the skillet. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the tortilla.
- Distribute half of the feta cheese, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, oregano, and chicken (if using) evenly over the cheese layer.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the fillings.
- Place a second tortilla on top of the fillings.
- Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.

- Remove from the skillet, slice into wedges, and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Notes
Serve these quesadillas with a side of tzatziki sauce for dipping. You can substitute halloumi cheese for feta for a firmer texture. Use whole wheat tortillas for a slightly different flavor profile.
