Lay 4 tortillas on a cutting board. 2. Carefully cut triangle-shaped eyes, a small nose, and a zigzag smile into each tortilla using a sharp knife. 3. Leave the other 4 tortillas whole for the bottoms. 🧀 Step 2: Prepare the Filling 4. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. 5. Add onion and cook for 2 minutes. 6. Stir in garlic, spinach, and roasted peppers. Cook for 1–2 minutes until softened and excess moisture evaporates. 7. Remove from heat and stir in oregano, basil, and black pepper. 🌯 Step 3: Assemble 8. Place one whole tortilla on a clean surface. 9. Sprinkle with mozzarella, add ¼ of the vegetable mixture, then top with feta and a little more mozzarella. 10. Place a carved tortilla on top, keeping the pumpkin face visible. 11. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. 🍳 Step 4: Cook 12. Lightly brush a skillet with olive oil and heat over medium-low. 13. Place one quesadilla in the skillet, pumpkin face facing up. 14. Cover and cook for 3–5 minutes until the bottom is golden and the cheese melts. 15. Avoid flipping to keep the pumpkin face intact. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. 🥒 Step 5: Make the Dip 16. Mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, garlic powder, and salt. 17. Serve alongside the warm quesadillas. 🎃 Halloween Tips - Create different pumpkin faces for extra fun! - Keep the filling finely chopped so the quesadillas stay flat. - Let the melted cheese and colorful vegetables show through the carved faces. - For a pumpkin shape, trim the tortillas before filling and cooking. 💰 Budget-Friendly Options - Use fresh bell peppers instead of roasted. - Replace feta with additional mozzarella. - Add mashed chickpeas for extra protein. - Use leftover cooked chicken for a heartier meal. 📊 Approximate Nutrition Per quesadilla, without dip: - Calories: 340 - Protein: 17g - Carbohydrates: 35g - Fat: 16g - Fiber: 5g Nutrition varies by ingredients. ❄️ Storage: Refrigerate leftovers for 3–4 days.
