Not Your Ordinary Quesadilla!

Enjoying my Lemonade? Just cut a thin slice of lemon and place it on the side of a cup - makes anyone feel retro!

Because Sunday nights are always about finishing up projects... And eating mouthwatering, worth burning-your-tongue-for-food! Thanks Ronald for giving us an assignment. I hate bio. But enough about school! Lets get foody ;)

What you'll need!
                         Oils

• Olive Oil
• Canola Oil
• Coconut Oil (Optional)

                  Ingredients

• Daiya Cheese
• Baby Spinach
• Tomato
• Onion
• Garlic
• Mushroom (Optional! I was going to put this in, but I didn't have it at the time.)
• Flour Tortillas (Or whole wheat - I just prefer white flour tortillas... What kind of vegan am I? Haha.)

Actually crying. I want to eat this again sooo badly...

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

First of all, you want to get everything prepped. Cut the onion into slices vertically (or however you like your onions.) and set aside. Un-Clove (is that a word?) garlic and peel the white shell off (or in bio, the membrane) and cut into thick chunky garlic slices. This is the time where you would get the mushroom out also! Place the onion (mushroom) and garlic in the frying pan and drizzle with olive oil. Fry on simmer (or heats 1-5) until a light yellow, or if you're cooking with mushrooms, cook until you can cut the mushroom in half with your spatula (or whatever utensil you're using to fry the items).

While the oil is popping in the frying pan, pop out an oven tray that you can cook tortillas on. Generously coat the pan with canola oil. Lay one tortilla to one of the sides of the tray and take some of the oil that was on the pan and spread it lightly on the top of the tortilla that is facing towards you. Take the daiya cheese and spread on half of the tortilla. On top of that, put the spinach. Then, slice the tomato into thin slices and put however many tomatoes on as you want. I only did three! By now, your frying pan mixture should be done. Put some of the mix on top of the tomatoes, then fold over the unused portion onto the portion with ingredients on it (basically like a taco!).

Continue this method with however many quesadillas you make.

Put in the oven for 7 minutes, then flip quesadilla onto the other side. Cook for 7 more minutes, for a total of 14 minutes in the oven. Wait 5-10 minutes to cool - if you can!
