Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are dry, about 4 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a small bowl.

Add one-quarter of the mushrooms, one-quarter of the spinach mixture and a few dashes of hot sauce, depending on how spicy you like it. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the fillings. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

SPINACH WHOLE WHEAT QUESADILLAS
This is a super quick, easy, and light dinner. This also makes a great snack or appetizer. It looks like a lot of spinach at first, but it shrinks down a lot in no time during cooking. Other types of tortillas can be used if whole wheat isn't available. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Steps:
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place 1 tortilla onto the skillet. Sprinkle about half the Cheddar cheese evenly over the tortilla. Top with the spinach, green onions, garlic powder, and chili powder. Cover with the remaining Cheddar cheese. Place the second tortilla on top.

- Add spinach, salt, black pepper and nutmeg to a 12-inch sauté pan over medium heat. Cover and cook until spinach has wilted, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove spinach from the pan and squeeze through a fine mesh strainer to get all that excess moisture out so you don't make your quesadillas soggy. Note: You're not actually pushing the spinach through the strainer, you're just using to squeeze some of that extra moisture out. Alternatively, you can place the spinach in a clean tea towel and squeeze the moisture out.
