One of my last posts talked about quick and easy supper options for times when I don't really feel like cooking. Tortilla pizzas fit within that category too, except that they are super yummy and most people have never heard of them (unlike chicken caesar salad).
I first came across this recipe idea a few years ago - the original calls for a double layer of tortilla + cheese but I've since cut that back to a single tortilla per pizza. Try both and see which one you prefer.
Think of this as more of a recipe idea than an actual recipe - as with any pizza, you can top the tortilla with anything that you like. I'm fond of using fresh spinach and feta or Soppressata salami. Use whole wheat or white flour tortillas. Thinly cover tortilla with bottled pizza sauce or open a can of tomato paste and mix it with olive oil and some dried basil/oregano/garlic powder (in a pinch, jarred tomato pasta sauce works just fine too!). Top with meat or veggies of your choice along with a generous amount of cheese. Place two tortilla pizzas on a cookie sheet and bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven. Check pizzas after 8-10 minutes - pizzas are done when cheese has bubbled and is golden in places. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with salad or raw vegetables.
P.S. These pizzas bake equally well in the BBQ as they do in the oven.
