Steps:
- Roughly chop the spinach, discarding stalks. Stuff it into a large saucepan with 250 ml of water and jam on the lid. Bring to the boil and cook gently for 5 minutes until it wilts to a glossy green mass. Remove, drain and cool. When cool, squeeze the spinach in your hands to wring out excess water. Chop finely and set aside.
- Slice the cheese finely and set aside. Heat a non-stick frying pan for 1 minute over a moderate heat. Lay out 4 tortillas and spread each one with a quarter of the spinach, right to the edges. Arrange slices of cheese over the top and scatter with salt and pepper. Top with another tortilla.
- Place one tortilla sandwich in the hot pan and dry-fry for 2 - 3 minutes until the cheese just starts to soften. Turn carefully and fry on the other side. Slide out of the pan onto a plate and keep warm while you make the remaining sandwiches. Cut each one into six wedges and serve.

PIZZA QUESADILLAS
When my husband and I needed a quick meal, I fixed this recipe using leftover ingredients. Unlike traditional Mexican quesadillas, it calls for Italian meats, cheeses and seasoning. Serve it with a green salad for a simple dinner for two. -Barbara Rupert, Edgefield, South Carolina

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach and mozzarella cheese will give your tortillas the best flavor. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach, but be sure to thaw it and squeeze out the excess water before using.
- Season the filling well: The filling for these tortillas is simple, so it's important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.
- Don't overcook the tortillas: Tortillas are best when they are cooked until they are just golden brown and slightly crispy. If you overcook them, they will become dry and tough.
- Serve the tortillas immediately: Tortillas are best served hot and fresh out of the oven. You can also reheat them in the microwave or oven, but they won't be as crispy as when they are first cooked.
