These were really good! I made them for a party and everyone loved them. I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken for the filling, and it worked great. I also added some chopped bell peppers to the filling, which gave it a nice crunch.

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I decided to try these quesadillas anyway. I'm so glad I did! The mushrooms were cooked perfectly and didn't overpower the other flavors. I'll definitely be making these again.
