The quesadillas were good, but not great. The chicken was a bit dry and the cheese was not melted all the way. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more seasoning to the chicken next time. Otherwise, they were easy to make and they turned out well.

These quesadillas were so easy to make and they tasted amazing! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time, and the quesadillas were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
