Ingredients

Garlic Dill Sauce

  • 1 5.3 oz container plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic finely chopped

Quesadillas

  • 1 cup 4 oz crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 cup 4 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 small cucumber diced (peeled if necessary)
  • 1 medium tomato finely chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pitted kalamata olives
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 8 8-inch flour tortillas

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  • In a large bowl, combine the feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, cucumber, tomato and olives. Season with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Add about 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture to half of one of the tortillas and fold over. Continue with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Cook the quesadillas, 2 at time, about 2 minutes on each side, or until browned and the filling has melted. Slice the quesadillas and serve with the Garlic Dill Sauce.
