Spinach and Mushroom Quesadillas

This spinach and mushroom quesadillas recipe is quick and easy to make.

I accidentally bought too many tortillas, so I have declared this week Quesadilla Week. Fortunately, we love quesadillas! They are fast, easy, and use melted cheese as glue. You can’t get much better than that. When we are in a hurry, I make quesadillas in the microwave, but when I have time I prefer the awesome crunchiness of the tortillas when cooked in a skillet.

I have a large electric skillet that allows me to make 3 -4 quesadillas at a time. If I am just making them for the boys for lunch, I use my large stainless steel skillet on the stove.
