Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat for 3–5 minutes.
Toss zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened.
Place one tortilla on the skillet and sprinkle half of the mozzarella over it.
Layer the sautéed vegetables, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and feta on top, adding spinach if desired.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella over the vegetable filling and top with a second tortilla. Press down gently.
Cook for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and cheese bubbles, then flip and cook for another 2–3 minutes.
Remove from skillet, let rest for a minute, and slice into wedges. Serve warm with tzatziki or hummus.
