Preparation
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine shredded mozzarella, crumbled feta, chopped spinach, diced tomato, sliced red onion, and a sprinkle of black pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
  2. Lay one tortilla flat and scoop a quarter of the filling onto one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over and press down to seal.
