These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some salsa or guacamole next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quesadillas didn't turn out very well. The tortillas were soggy and the cheese didn't melt properly.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

These quesadillas were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
