- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large saucepan, combine the quinoa and chicken broth and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender.
- In a large sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the green onion, bell pepper, zucchini, spinach, and jalapeño, and cook about 5 minutes, or until soft and lightly brown.
- On a large baking sheet, brush the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil on 1 side of each tortilla, then flip over the tortillas.
