Best Spinach Tomato Tortillas Recipes

SPINACH TOMATO TORTELLINI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the tortellini, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
• While you get the tortellini going, combine the tomatoes, spinach, salt, pepper, basil and garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture begins to bubble.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, milk and cream. Stir this mixture into the saucepan along with the Parmesan cheese. Heat through, then reduce heat to low, and simmer until thick, about 2 minutes.
• Drain the tortellini, but do not rinse, then pour them into the saucepan with the sauce. Stir to coat, and serve.

HOMEMADE SPINACH WRAPS

Steps:

• Line a large plate with parchment and set it aside.
• Add the spinach, flour, water, and salt to a blender. Blend for 20-30 seconds or until smooth.
• Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat (see note). Pour ½ cup of the batter into the center of the pan and spread out to about 12-inch diameter using a rubber spatula or trowel spreader.
• Cook for about 1 ½ minutes until lightly browned underneath. Flip and cook on the other side for one minute more.
• Remove to the prepared plate. Add another layer of parchment or a clean dish towel before adding the next wrap to prevent sticking.

SPINACH TORTILLAS RECIPE

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.

CHICKEN, FETA CHEESE, AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO WRAPS

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine chicken breasts and 1/4 cup dressing. Seal, and refrigerate for several hours.
• Preheat grill for high heat. Combine sun-dried tomatoes and hot water in a small bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes, drain, and cut tomatoes into thin slices.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Discard marinade, and place chicken on grill. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning once, or until done.
• Cut chicken into strips, and place in a medium bowl with sliced tomatoes, feta, and spinach. Toss with remaining 1/4 cup dressing. Distribute mixture between the four tortillas, and wrap. Either cut in half and enjoy cold, or place briefly back on grill until the tortilla turns warm and crispy.

SAUTEED SPINACH AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high. Add shallots and cook, stirring often, until soft and starting to brown, about 4 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until tomato skins are split and shallots are golden brown, about 2 minutes.
• Gradually add spinach, season with salt and pepper, and cook until tender, 3 minutes. To serve, sprinkle with Pecorino Romano.
