    So far made just the black beans. I love their flavor. Very easy and straightforward

    I also liked these a lot. I cut back on the amounts to feed fewer people, and was missing some of the garnishes, but they were still very tasty. Second time around, we had them without cheese, and they were still very good. Very quick as averythingcooks says if you have beans and chiles ready to go. I will have to look up that tortilla stack method; sounds intriguing.

    These are really good! I have whole roasted poblanos & cooked black beans in my freezer so prep time was pretty quick. I used a mix of cheddar & pepper jack, added some leftover shredded chicken & some pickled jalapeno and I used Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill "3 tortilla stack, oven bake" method. These were cheesy, spicy, crispy & filling served with a green salad and leftover creamy jalapeno sauce from an earlier dinner this week. I would make these again for sure.

    Very good and very filling quesadillas! For ease of prep I'd either make sure the beans are canned or cook them in advance. I'd also just use regular sour cream and sliced avocados as toppings, with a squeeze of lime. I sort of went overboard and made the suggested lime crema and pea guacamole, too. While they were good, I don't think they were necessary as there was plenty of flavor in the bean filling. Definitely cut the recipe in half, too! Waaaay too much for 3 people.

    Daughter and I loved these. I couldn't find smoked mozzarella so used regular and added a couple drops of liquid smoke. We ate ours with the optional avocado slices and lime wedges. Omitted the cliantro and added some salsa when we ate them. I made a half recipe for the two of us.
