What's Spanish for “Opa!”? This cross-cultural dinner will have you saying delicious in at least three languages, four if you count the “mmms” that are universally known for meaning “scrumptious.” Spinach and feta are joined by stretchy, cheesy mozzarella in classic quesadilla form, topped with tart sour cream and an acidic, bright tomato topping that provides lovely balance. This dinner delights in all tongues, but mostly on yours as you devour that last bite. Tip: Make quick work of mincing garlic by smashing the whole clove with the side of your chef's knife. Then rock the knife back and forth, keeping the tip steady by resting your other hand over the top.

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

Customize It Instructions

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using whole chicken breasts, pat dry, and on a separate cutting board, cut into 1” dice. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side. If using steak strips, separate into a single layer, pat dry, and coarsely chop. Stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes. If using ground turkey, break up turkey until no pink remains and turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 7-9 minutes. If using Impossible burger, break up burger until heated through, 4-6 minutes. Add to quesadillas as desired.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve lemon lengthwise. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Core tomatoes and cut into 1/4" dice.

    Coarsely chop spinach.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Mince garlic.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add white portions of green onions to hot pan and stir occasionally until tender, 1-2 minutes.

    Add garlic and cook until aromatic, 30-60 seconds.

    Add spinach and seasoning blend and stir constantly until spinach is wilted, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer filling to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  3. 3

    Make the Tomato Topping

    Combine tomatoes, green portions of green onions, 1 tsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    Place tortillas on clean work surface.

    Divide mozzarella and feta equally among tortillas, placing on one half. Top cheeses evenly with filling.

    Fold tortillas in half, covering filling.

  5. 5

    Cook Quesadillas and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook filling to medium heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.

    Working in batches, add three or four quesadillas to hot pan (there should be no overlap). Cook until golden brown, 2-4 minutes per side.

    Repeat with remaining quesadillas. If pan becomes dry, replenish with 2 tsp. olive oil. Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping quesadillas with tomato topping and sour cream. Squeeze lemon wedges over to taste. Bon appétit!
