Before diving into preparing your quesadillas, it’s crucial to preheat your air fryer. Preheating helps achieve that perfectly crispy texture that everyone loves. Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for approximately 5 minutes. This step ensures that the quesadillas cook evenly and develop a golden-brown crust while keeping the filling warm and gooey.

Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup bell peppers, diced (mix of colors)

1 cup zucchini, diced

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 cup spinach, roughly chopped

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

Salsa and sour cream for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.

    Prepare the Veggies: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced bell peppers, zucchini, corn, and chopped spinach. Drizzle with olive oil, then add garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

      Assemble the Quesadillas: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella and cheddar cheese on one half of the tortilla. Top with a generous amount of the veggie mixture and add another layer of cheese on top of the veggies. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

        Air Fry the Quesadillas: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Carefully place one or two quesadillas in the basket (depending on the size) and cook for 7-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.

          Serve: Remove the quesadillas from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute. Cut into wedges and serve with salsa and sour cream on the side for dipping.
