I had high hopes for these quesadillas, but I was disappointed. The black beans were mushy and the avocado was flavorless.

The quesadillas were good, but they fell apart easily. I think I'll try using a different type of tortilla next time.

These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.
