The quesadillas were good, but they were a bit too oily. I think I will drain the chicken better next time.

These quesadillas were a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I will use less cheese next time.

The quesadillas were good, but they were a bit too dry. I think I will add some sour cream or salsa next time.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I will use less chili powder next time.

The quesadillas were good, but they were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I will try baking them next time instead of frying them.

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