Categories     Bread

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups boiling water
6 cups spinach, lightly packed
3 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (or olive oil, for vegan)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup room temperature water, plus more as necessary

Steps:

  • In a heatproof bowl, pour the boiling water over the spinach. When the spinach is bright green and wilted, about 2 minutes, drain the water using a strainer.
  • Add the flour, salt, and butter to the food processor and pulse until combined. Add the spinach and process until fully combined with the flour, stopping and scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Then turn on the food processor and slowly pour in the room temperature water until a dough forms. Test the dough with your fingers to make sure it sticks together and is not crumbly or sticky. Adjust the flour and water if necessary.
  • Remove the dough from the food processor, form it into a ball, and knead it for about 30 seconds until smooth. Then place the dough on a clean counter, cover it with an inverted bowl, and let it sit for 20 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 10 even balls. Smash all dough balls into flat disks. On a flat un-floured surface, roll each ball into a very thin round circle, about 8 inches wide. (You may want to use a ruler to measure so that you can make all of your circles an even size.)
  • Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook each tortilla about 30 seconds on one side, then 15 to 30 on the other, until cooked through and faint light brown spots form on the second side. When the tortilla is cooked, place it on a plate covered with a clean towel. This process is easiest done with two people, one rolling and one cooking. If you're by yourself, roll 2 tortillas and cook them, place them on the plate with the towel and then roll the next tortillas.
  • To store the tortillas, wrap them in a towel and place them in a sealable plastic bag in the refrigerator. Reheat or bring to room temperature before serving.

Roasted Butternut Squash, Spinach and Mozzarella Quesadillas image

Roast chunks of butternut squash and tuck them into a gooey quesadilla with sauteed spinach.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 2-pound butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 3/4-inch chunks (about 3 cups)
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large shallot, sliced (about 3/4 cup)
One 10-ounce package baby spinach leaves, washed but not dried
Four 10-inch (burrito-size) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded mozzarella
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Guacamole, salsa, chopped scallions and sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat it to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
  • Put the squash in a medium bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the oil, 2 teaspoons of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix until the squash is well coated. Divide and spread the squash out in a single layer between the 2 prepared baking sheets. Roast until tender, about 30 minutes.

Raise the heat to high and add the spinach with whatever water clings to the leaves and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir while incorporating any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cover the skillet and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
  • Lay a tortilla on a work surface and top evenly with 1/2 cup mozzarella. Add 1/4 of the butternut squash and 1/4 of the spinach. Fold tortilla in half to enclose fillings. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
  • Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the quesadilla, flipping once, until the cheese is melted and the quesadilla is golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
