- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. In a bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Grill the seasoned vegetables for 5-7 minutes, or until tender-crisp and slightly charred. Set aside once cooked.
Assembly and Cooking
- Lightly brush one side of each tortilla with the remaining olive oil. Place a tortilla, oil-side down, on the grill or in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Sprinkle half of the tortilla with a mix of feta and mozzarella cheese, then spoon a portion of the grilled vegetables over the cheese. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the grill and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm.
Notes
These quesadillas can be served with a side of Greek yogurt, salsa, or hummus. Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what's in season or your preference.
