Method
- 1
Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a tray with parchment.
- 2
Spread each tortilla thinly with sauce, leaving a small border. Sprinkle with mozzarella and spinach.
- 3
Roll each tortilla up tightly and cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) slices.
- 4
Lay the slices flat, brush lightly with oil and bake 10–12 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
- 5
Cool for at least 10 minutes and check the center before serving; melted cheese stays hot much longer than the tortilla.
