Spinach and Mushroom Quesadilla Recipe #FastFiveMeals

I participated in a Fast Five Meals recipe swap with Savings.com and my fellow DealPro’s.  The purpose of the recipe swap is to help get the word about about the new Meal Planning classes with Savings.com.  You’ll find DealPro’s across the country teaching you how to save money by Meal Planning. Meal planning not only helps combat stress in the kitchen, but it also can help drastically reduce your grocery budget and help you spend less time in the kitchen.

A great method to help you save in the kitchen is to determine Fast Five Meals.  These are 5 easy to prepare meals that you could have on the table in less than 20 minutes.  I made Spinach and Mushroom Quesadilla’s for my family courtesy of Alea from Premeditated Leftovers.  The recipe was super easy to prepare and my entire family loved it.  It is definitely going on my Fast Five Meals list!

• 12 tortillas
