Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic to the skillet.
- Cook and stir until the mushroom liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
- Add the steamed spinach to the skillet and cook until heated through.
- Lay the tortillas or mountain bread flat and evenly distribute the mushroom and spinach mixture on each.
- Top with mozzarella cheese and roll up the tortillas.
- Place the wraps on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, consider adding a dollop of cream cheese or ricotta into the spinach and mushroom filling. If you're looking for a vegan option, use dairy-free cheese or skip the cheese altogether. For added flavor, sprinkle in some Italian herbs or crushed red pepper flakes. Be sure to wash the spinach thoroughly to remove any grit before cooking.
Serving Suggestions
These wraps are delightful on their own but can be served with a side of fresh salad or a bowl of soup for a complete meal. They pair beautifully with Balsamic Dressing for added zest. You could also serve them alongside Steamed Herbed Potatoes for a heartier option or enjoy as part of a Mediterranean recipes spread.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the wraps in an oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through. If you prefer a quicker option, microwave them for 1-2 minutes, but the oven method will keep the tortilla crisp.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen spinach instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use frozen spinach. Just make sure to thaw and drain it well to remove excess moisture before adding it to the skillet. This will help maintain the right texture and prevent the wraps from becoming soggy.
What can I substitute for flour tortillas?
If you're looking for a gluten-free option, you can use corn tortillas or large lettuce leaves for a lighter wrap. For a low-carb version, consider using a cauliflower wrap. Both options will still hold the filling nicely while catering to different dietary preferences.
How can I make these wraps spicier?
To add some heat, incorporate diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper into the mushroom and spinach mixture. You can also serve them with a spicy dipping sauce, such as sriracha or a homemade chili sauce, to enhance the flavors further.
