Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 2 heaping cups baby spinach
• 1/2 cup diced artichoke hearts
• 1 1/2 cups leftover diced turkey
• 3 oz low fat cream cheese, cubed
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 3/4 tsp pepper
• 4 - 10 in flour tortillas
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1/4 cup smoked gouda

Directions

• In a large sauté pan over medium heat, add the olive oil. Swirl around to heat then add the diced red pepper. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until softened.
• Add the spinach and stir around to cook down. Once it starts to wilt, add the artichokes, turkey, cream cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well then remove from heat and add to a bowl. Set to the side and keep warm by placing a towel over it or place in oven.
• Wipe out the sauté pan with a paper towel and heat over medium heat. Add half the butter and melt. Once melted, add one of the tortillas. Layer with 2 tbsp gouda, and a heaping 1/2 cup of the turkey mixture, 2 tbsp more gouda and another tortilla. Press together. By the time you are done layering, the bottom will start to crisp up. Check to see if the tortilla is golden brown. If it is, then its time to flip. Press together with a spatula or your hand, carefully flip then cook for 4-5 minutes to allow the other side to crisp and the cheese to completely melt. Remove from the heat and to a large cutting board. Cut into 4 triangles and serve immediately.
