These are really good. I made them in advance and then froze them for work lunches, so i didn't try this until today. A very nice change from turkey or chicken all the time. My only change was using broccoli instead of corn since I cannot have corn.... oh and real garlic!

My kids whine every time I fix tuna. So I'm always on the lookout for "different" tuna recipes. They loved this. Thank you.

This is great! I love tuna, but I didn't know how it would go in Mexican, but the spices blended it in so well. I left out the wing sauce because I don't have any, but it was very yummy nonetheless. I'm going to have to figure out some way to modify it, though, because my husband hates beans and corn. But I loved it as is.

Loved it! We omited the hot sauce cause my family have sensitive mouths but used spicy black beans instead and it had the spicy taste but not the burn.

Mixing tuna with refried beans didn't sound very appealing at first, but after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a go. My family LOVED it! Even my 9-year-old and his friend couldn't get enough. I didn't have any sour cream on hand so I substituted an avocado instead. Worked perfectly! Maintained the creamy texture & added some additional vitamins. I also used garlic powder instead of salt to cut down on the sodium, and top with salsa. I make these at least once a month now and the family still loves them!

used canned whole black beans instead of refried, but mashed in with tuna and sour cream. Used minced garlic instead of garlic salt to reduce salt content.added one extra TBSP of hot wing sauce..3 instead of two. transferred from skillet to foil lined cookie sheet into 300 degree oven to keep warm. Husband loved these!!- another Beth

Just made it tonight! Interesting ingredients, and turned out good! I substituted Tapitio for the wing sauce and I added green onions to the mix. Oh and mashed up whole black beans instead of Refried black beans. Will definitely make again! Great way to get protein and fiber while getting rid of canned goods.

Loved these. Followed recipe as much as I could. I couldn't find refried black beans so had to use refried pinto beans. Also used garlic powder instead of garlic salt due to health reasons and used Franks hot sauce. I also added some minced onion. The filling was really delicious. Just the right amount of heat. I only made one quesadilla yesterday so with the left overs I can't wait to make another one for lunch today.

This was pretty good, but not really pretty looking lol. I was expecting it to be more flavorful, considering the rave reviews and the title. Was nothing a small side of Frank's Redhot for dipping couldn't fix. The only change I made was to use Garlic powder and a pinch of salt (instead of garlic salt-1 tablespoon seemed like a lot) to cut down on sodium. It was certainly easy for a weekday meal, and I could see it being a great way to get kids to eat tuna. But, since I don't have kids, I am not sure this would be a "go to" over a simple bean/chicken/spices/cheese filling for quesadillas.
