Ingredients You Need for Spinach Quesadillas with Strawberry-Spring Onion Salsa [Vegan]

Vegan Strawberry-Spring Onion Salsa

2 cups sliced strawberries
2 spring onions, thinly sliced crosswise
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
Juice of one-half of a lime (I heat it for 10 seconds in the microwave and then roll it on the counter before slicing and squeezing in order to extract the most juice)
2 teaspoons Balsamic vinegar
1 to 2 teaspoon natural sugar (to balance acids)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

How to Prepare Spinach Quesadillas with Strawberry-Spring Onion Salsa [Vegan]

Make quesadillas two at a time: spray a large cast-iron skillet with non-stick spray and heat over medium-high.
Place 1/4 of the spinach on half of each tortilla, sprinkle with about 2 teaspoons of nutritional yeast each, fold over and grill two at a time, flat sides facing each other, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side or until toasty.
≠Serve each quesadilla immediately topped with 1/4 of the salsa, 1 tablespoon of vegan sour cream, and 1 tablespoon pepitas.

Notes

Optional: finely minced seeded jalapeno to taste (I would have used a little, but didn't have any on hand) Make salsa first so that flavors can marry: combine all salsa ingredients in a small non-reactive bowl and set aside.
