Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat, around 375°F (190°C). Clean the grates and lightly oil them.
  2. In a large bowl, combine sliced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, and thinly sliced red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil.
  3. Spread the seasoned vegetables on the preheated grill and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until tender and charred.
  4. In a skillet, warm more olive oil and sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
  5. Lay out tortillas and layer with grilled veggies, sautéed spinach, cherry tomatoes, feta, and mozzarella on one half. Fold tortillas over.
  6. Grill the filled tortillas for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cheese has melted.
  7. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges.
