Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound of ground turkey or chicken
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
8 whole wheat tortillas
1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, approximately 8-10 minutes.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine, then remove from heat and set aside.
Lay four tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly distribute the turkey mixture over each tortilla, followed by a layer of spinach and a generous sprinkle of low-fat cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining tortillas.
Spray a skillet or grill pan with non-stick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Place a quesadilla in the pan and cook until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, then slice each into wedges. Serve warm.
