I loved the combination of flavors in these quesadillas. The pork was tender and flavorful, and the rice added a nice texture. The orange salsa was also a great addition, and it really brightened up the dish.

I loved the idea of these quesadillas, but they didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The pork was a bit tough and the rice was overcooked.

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

I would have liked these quesadillas more if the pork had been more flavorful. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

These quesadillas were okay. They weren't anything special, but they were still good enough to eat.

I wasn't a big fan of these quesadillas. The pork was a bit dry and the rice was bland. The orange salsa was good, though.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still good. I would recommend using a milder salsa if you don't like spicy food.
