Recipe for quesadillas with salmon, spinach, and cottage cheese
Quesadillas; easy, quick, and delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner – just what you need…
It’s basically “just” tortillas with filling in between, then fried in a pan – very simple, but it tastes wonderful! And it’s perfect when you need to prepare food in a hurry…
This version is with spinach, fried salmon, and cottage cheese. Crispy on the outside and filled with creamy deliciousness and flavor inside.
I served it with a super quick chunky guacamole, and the best part? It’s all ready in just 20 minutes.
