“I'm a new reader to this site and so happy I found it. I made these quesadillas last night. A big hit with hubby - I was hoping for leftovers but no such luck! I used one tablespoon of siracha for the hot sauce and added a cup of black beans to the mix. Delici” — a cook, 5.0★
“This recipe was easy, fast, and flavor was spot on! Will definitely put this in rotation for Mexican night! I made exactly as shown and actually had enough filling for 5 tortillas.” — a cook, 5.0★
