How to Make Cheesy Vegan Spinach Quesadillas:


1️⃣ Sauté the Spinach Filling

In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Toss in spinach, season with salt and pepper, and cook until wilted (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.

2️⃣ Assemble the Quesadillas

On half of each tortilla, sprinkle a generous layer of vegan cheese. Add a spoonful of the sautéed spinach and any optional fillings. Fold the tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape.


3️⃣ Cook to Crispy Perfection

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with olive oil and cook the quesadilla for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.

4️⃣ Slice & Serve

Let the quesadilla cool slightly, then cut into wedges. Serve immediately with your favorite dips!
