Cooking Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 350F.
- Lightly brush olive oil onto one side of the tortilla (or spray with olive oil cooking spray). In the basket of your air fryer, place the tortilla, oil side down. Spread a layer of half of the shredded cheese, top with spinach and chicken and finish with the remaining half of the cheese.
- Fold the tortilla in half, creating a quesadilla and cook for about 8 minutes (flipping the quesadilla halfway through cooking to ensure both sides are evenly cooked).
- Serve with guacamole, salsa, and sour cream (or plain greek yogurt)!
Notes
Check your quesadilla periodically throughout cooking to ensure the quesadilla didn't open (this can happen due to the air fryer fan). If this happens, just press it closed again. You can also use a toothpick to secure the edges together.
