    In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell pepper, cooking until they are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet, warm each spinach tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable. Remove from heat and set aside.
