I'm sorry, but this didn't go over so well with my family. I'd try it again, but maybe on flour tortillas, as that's what they're used to for quesadillas; although I think I've read that the corn tortillas are authentic. I'd kick them up with some spice as well, as least for myself, the boys like mild. We did enjoy the corn/tomato combination. I couldn't find smoked mozzarella and used regular, so that may have been part of the problem. Thanks for posting.
