This is a Mediterranean-Mexican mashup. Dill adds a distinctive flavour, but leave it out if it’s not to your taste, or use fresh or dried mint instead. Bulk it up by serving with sweet potato wedges

Ingredients
- 1 x 260g pack young spinach
- 4 spring onions
- 100g vegetarian feta, crumbled
- 3 tsp chopped dill, optional
- 1½ tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 flour tortillas
- 2 handfuls of ripe tomatoes
- tzatziki to serve
Step by step
- Cook the spinach until wilted, either in the microwave or in a large nonstick frying pan (which you can then cook the quesadillas in), then chop it roughly.
- Chop 3 spring onions quite finely and mash with the feta, 2 teaspoons of dill and 1⁄2 tablespoon of olive oil. Stir in the spinach and season to taste.
- Lay out 2 of the tortillas on a board and spread with the spinach-feta mixture. Top with the other 2 tortillas and press down.
- Dry-fry, one quesadilla at a time, in a large nonstick frying pan for 11⁄2-2 minutes each side over a medium heat until crisp, and golden in patches.
- Meanwhile, slice the tomatoes and toss with the rest of the dill, 1 tablespoon of oil, seasoning and the last spring onion, finely sliced.
- Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with the tomato salad and some tzatziki.
