I omitted the salt and pepper from this recipe as it was for a baby under 1 and a toddler's lunch.

Steps

1

Saute the onions for 3-4 minutes over a medium low heat then add the spinach and garlic and saute again for another 3-4 minutes until spinach has wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
2

Transfer the spinach mixture onto a plate and place in a cold place like the fridge for a few minutes.
3

Next prepare the egg mixture, by whisking together the egg, cheese and herb of choice.
4

Remove any excess moisture from the spinach by squeezing it with your hands and then add it to the egg mixture.
5

Mix the egg mixture with the spinach and then divide into 4 equal parts and add each to 4 different halves of a tortilla and then fold the tortillas in half for large tortillas. For small tortilla 2 will be needed.
6

Spray the pan with fry lite then fry for 2-3 minutes on each half on low and serve with sour cream, plain yogurt or other creamy dairy sauce of choice.
