Description
A quick and easy twist on the classic tuna melt, combining savory tuna with melting mozzarella and a spicy kick from sriracha, all packed in a crispy quesadilla.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 can tuna, drained
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sriracha sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tortillas
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sriracha until smooth.
- Add the drained tuna, chopped spinach, minced garlic, and dried basil. Stir until well mixed.
- Take one tortilla and spread half of the tuna mixture on one half, top with mozzarella cheese, and fold the tortilla.
- In a preheated skillet over medium heat, cook the quesadilla until golden brown on both sides, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Repeat with the second quesadilla.
- Slice into wedges and serve.
Notes
For a crisper exterior, lightly brush the tortillas with oil before cooking. Experiment with different cheese varieties or add additional vegetables for variation.
