This was pretty good. Different than my regular quesadillas with the addition of the apple. I also added some crumbled bacon to the mix and it was really tasty. I was a little skeptical about the apples with the corn and salsa and sour cream, but it worked well. When I make it again, I will definitely chop the apples to make the mixture more uniform so that the ingredients get more evenly distributed in the quesadilla. As for baking vs. frying, I didn't notice much of a difference flavorwise because I use cooking spray in the skillet anyway. I did notice that this takes me a lot longer to cook because of the baking time (twice as long as usual was still under 15 minutes, but when you're hungry it seems like forever). Next time I think I will just make it on the stove. Cilantro would probably be a nice addition.

We enjoyed the recipe. We had leftover filling and we used that the next day to make omelets. I took others advice and diced the apples and added a lot more cheese. I used a tortilla on bottom and one on top then cut them into 4 pieces. We had the chicken falling out from everywhere so from now on I will definitely use the folded tortilla method because it holds the filling in a lot better while you eat it.

WOW! To my complete surprise, my whole family loved these. They had no idea the apple was in it and loved it even more when they found out. It's a great way to hide a bunch of "good-for-you" things in melted cheese. I used shredded 2% Mexican cheese, finely chopped red onion (carmelized for a few minutes) and black beans along with the tomatoes and corn. Served with guac and chips, this was a filling meal. YUM!

This was a great dish. Really easy to make. Another easy dorm meal. I used a toaster oven to bake them and I think my only issues was that I could only make one at a time. I used a little more cheese than it called for and substituted half a red onion for the regular onion. It was wonderful. I will definatly make these again!

I followed the suggestion of someone else and chopped up the apples. It was so yummy! My husband really liked them and they were really easy to make. The combination was surprisingly delicious! I will definitely make this again! Its a keeper.

They came out a little messy instead of crispy, but oh-so-delicious! I added a little extra garlic and some cilantro. Also, next time I will try chopping the apples so there's more in every bite (instead of slicing).

I thought these were awesome, exactly as written. The apples really helped to create a unique flavor and they came out nice and brown and crispy. My husband loved them. We will definitely be adding this to our recipe collection:) Thanks

I didn't make these as written so I don't know that I can rate it as such, but I only made two changes and really liked it. Instead of tortillas I used crescent roll dough to make them into turnovers instead of quesadillas. I needed 3 cans of dough; unrolled them to make 12 rectangles. Flattened them out, but a scoop of mixture on half, folded them over and then sealed them with the tines of a fork. Sprayed the tops of each with olive oil spray and sprinkled with sesame seeds. They came out perfectlly baked at 350 degrees for about 18 minutes. Part way through making them I got the idea that they might be even better with bbq sauce, so I put in 1/4-1/3 cup, just enough to incorpate with the other ingredients, not make it saucy. I ate one of each and like them better with the bbq sauce. My husband ate two, my five-year old wouldn't touch them, but my three-year old ate half of one. I rated them a 4 out of 5 simply because they're a little different and might not suit many tastes, but I think I'll make them again myself.

Good recipe, thanks! Instead of using raw onion, I cooked some in a little olive oil and then added a dash of apple cider vinegar and a dash of sugar to the onions. Yumm!
