Love the kiddo shots! They must ADORE you! My godson is way grown-up: age 20 and wants to be the next Jamie Oliver.

Ja, can say that the recipe is quite mouth-watering. Quesadillas rock :) But of course, many folks here say the "Quesa-dill-uh." I do live in the land of Napoleon Dyamite, after all.

Quesadillas with apples that sounds delicious, my son loves quesadillas I have to try this one.

It does sound like you're having a great time! The kids are lucky to have you cooking for them. What a great kid-friendly recipe. I'm sending it right now to my sister who has 8 kids! (Two have left home, but she still has her hands full.)

Gosh, we love quesadillas. It's so cute to hear my 2 year old say that word, too! It's my favorite way to "sneak" ingredients into my kids bellies without them picking them out of recipes- for some reason they don't open up the quesadilla and investigate!

I have one improvement to the quesadilla that I learned on America's Test Kitchen. We brush each side with a little canola oil and sprinkle kosher salt on it. Then do the pan thing. It tastes like a tortilla chip! Yum!

Thanks for expanding my horizon with the apple inside.

Just made these a few minutes ago. They were delicious! My husband refused to eat it with the apples in it, and had them on the side instead. But I personally thought they were great! The perfect amount of cruncy.

Just curious.. why wouldn't you put the other toppings (ie. apple and salsa) in the pan while cooking? Why add them later?

How clever! I never would have thought of salsa and apples as going together.

Oh my gosh, I gotta stop coming to this blog, I cant keep getting hungry for this stuff. Its not even mealtime! Thanks for the recipe.

Just made these for lunch, without the chicken, they were superb!

"Mom, I need to make chicken quesadillas for 30 kids in my spanish class for tomorrow" !!!!That was how my son greeted me after school today. Yikes! Thank you so much for the very easy and quick recipe. Also, for the step by step pictures as well! You have just made my afternoon a little easier!! Thank you!

This is like the umpteenth recipe I've used from your site. Thanks again for yet another great meal! I first sprinkled salt and pepper on skinless chicken breasts, then cooked it in olive oil and minced garlic. After it was nice and brown, I shredded it before putting it into the quesadillas. I also found that monterey jack melts nicer than other types of cheese. Plus, for the apples - I am allergic to apple skin, so I peeled them ahead of time, sliced them thinly, and kept them soaked in OJ & water so it wouldn't brown. Perfecto!

I loved the quesadilla recipe! I like to have a crunch in every meal and the apple was a tasty healthy way to get it! they were easy to make too. Thank you for sharing with us!

WOW. Your chicken apple quesadillas are AMAZING! My mom and I tried them out and we loved them so much that we had to make more!! Thanks you for your great ideas!

These are amazing. Seriously the best quesadillas I've ever had.
I used granny smith apples and a store bought salsa, mild. I sauteed some chicken breast seasoned with salt pepper and a tiny bit of cayenne with olive oil and garlic. I followed the method almost exactly but I brushed the tortillas with oil and lightly salted them as someone suggested. I added the apples and salsa while they were in the pan and flipped them just to warm it through. Absolutely delicious! These will be great for get togethers and such. Thanks so much for the recipe! Im going to be trying out some others on your site in the next week or so, they look great! Thanks again!

I have a very picky 9 year old, apples are his favorite. This has now become his everday lunch. I used whole wheat tortillas and golden delicious apples.

My husband makes similar quesadillas with grilled pineapple or grilled Granny Smith apple. Grilled Mangoes and Papayas also work. He uses a white cheddar and Ranchero cheese blend (mild white Mexican cheese). Mesquite grilled chicken also adds a nice touch. Any leftover grilled fruit can be chopped up into a fruit salsa. Serve with guacamole. This is my absolute favorite meal right behind Stewed Taters.

This is also great with cheese and apple sauce. I put both ingredients on the tortilla, heated, then served salsa on the side. Wonderful!

My son is gobbling up his quesadilla as I am writing! Thanks for this kid-friendly recipe and idea. I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch today, too! And I'm not struggling with my 3-year-old to get him to eat...next on the schedule, naptime!

My boyfriend and I LOVED these! I was initially very skeptical about the idea of fruit + meat, like many others-- my dad likes to put chunks of apple in his tuna, which I really dislike. In the end, however, I was so pleased with the subtle sweet/tart of the granny smith apple I used, and the delicious CRUNCH!

We made extra and ate it cold for lunch the next day, and I was surprised at how good *that* was. I think I might have enjoyed it even better than the first time around. It was like a fresh chicken wrap. So good!

Tried this for dinner tonight and it was a HIT! Instead of salsa I put in green chilies and it was delicious! Who would of thought apples in a quesadilla would be sooo good!

This was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing!

I made these a few nights ago after having lack of motivation for making dinner. These are so simple, yet so tasty. Thank you much. I really love checking out your recipes. They all come out great every time.

Googled apple tortillas and found your recipe :-) I made this a Weight Watcher-friendly recipe, and it came out to 9 Pts+ for one good size, filling, delicious quesadilla using 2 low-carb, high-fiber whole wheat tortillas (50 cal)and low-fat sharp cheddar cheese. I loaded the bottom tortilla with all ingredients (heated apple slices and cold cooked chicken in pan first), then topped with second tortilla. When cheese melted and heated through, I cut into triangles for ease of eating. Tried sprinkling apples with a small amount of cinnamon & sugar when I don't have salsa - delicious! (This makes one large serving or two smaller ones, depending on your appetite.)
