    I made these quesadillas tonight along with the fried chicken salad that aired on the same episode. My family and I live in Texas so we are spoiled with excellent options of Tex Mex. This was very good. My husband, friends, and I all enjoyed it. The fresh spices were quite a nice touch! I used the apricot sugar-free jelly and used is sparingly. It turned out perfectly! Thanks.

    This is a very simple and different appetizer which has never failed to please! If you find it too sweet, just go easy on the jam. A big hit for summer gatherings!
