ADVERTISEMENT

Cooking Tips:

  • Make sure to sauté the spinach until it wilts to release excess moisture, so the tortilla doesn’t become soggy.
  • If you prefer a crispier base, you can briefly toast the tortilla in the pan before adding the filling.
  • Feel free to swap out mozzarella for other cheeses like cheddar or feta for different flavor profiles.
  • For added protein, you can incorporate cooked chicken or bacon into the filling.
  • If you want to make it a vegan dish, use a dairy-free cheese alternative and substitute the eggs with a plant-based egg replacement.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Spinach is rich in iron, vitamin K, and antioxidants that support bone health and fight inflammation.
  • Tomatoes are high in vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene, which contribute to heart health and skin health.

  • Mozzarella offers calcium for strong bones and a good source of protein.
