Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. • Roughly chop spinach. • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp butter, then swirl the pan until melted, 1 min. • Add spinach, then cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 2-3 min. Remove from heat, then season with 1/4 tsp garlic salt and pepper. • Transfer spinach to a plate to cool slightly
Arrange tortillas on a clean surface. • Sprinkle cheese over one side of each tortilla, then top with spinach. Carefully, fold tortillas in half to enclose filling, pressing down to seal. • Heat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then 3 quesadillas. Cook until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Reduce heat to medium and repeat with another 1/2 tbsp oil and remaining quesadillas.
Meanwhile, combine crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce base, cream, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1/4 tsp garlic salt in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 5-6 min. • Divide tomato soup between bowls.
Cut quesadillas in half. • Divide quesadillas between plates. • Serve chunky tomato soup alongside for dipping.
