Spinach Pie "Wrap" Quesadilla



The "secret" ingredient? Raisins! Yes, they're good for you and yes, they're usually found in granola, but if you're up for something a little different (and dare we say delicious) give this one a try -- the sweetness of dried grapes goes fabulously with the savoriness of melted provolone and hot spinach in a lightly toasted wrap.

Spinach Pie "Wrap" Quesadilla.

1 whole-wheat flour tortilla
lots of baby spinach (about 2 generous "grabs" with the tongs)
1 slice provolone cheese
1/4 cup shredded cheese
3 Tbsp raisins

1. Place provolone cheese on tortilla. Pile on the spinach, shredded cheese, and raisins.
2. Fold carefully into a "wrap" -- it will be rather puffy but the spinach will wilt down.
3. Place in a pre-heated panini press and let it do its thing for 5 min, or until golden brown grill marks appear.
4. Slice in half and enjoy.
