5 13 Published Oct 04, 2021, Updated Jan 23, 2023 I kept it super simple by topping these pizzas with just cheese but feel free to get creative with your toppings! You’ll find some ideas below but add what you like. These pizzas make a great, easy meal but they would also be a fun appetizer for game day or an after-school snack. Your kids will love being served pizza for a snack!
Here’s What You Need
flour tortillas – I like using 8-10 inch tortillas but you can use smaller ones if you’d like! Just note that the cook time will vary depending on the size of tortilla you use. pizza sauce – keep it traditional with a marinara sauce or switch it up with a pesto or cream sauce. If you use store-bought pizza sauce, grab one without any added sugar. Some of my favorites are Rao’s tomato basil sauce and Primal Kitchen’s tomato basil marinara sauce. shredded mozzarella cheese – gotta have cheese to make this pizza complete! I used shredded mozzarella cheese for that classic pizza taste but feel free to switch it up if you’d like. optional toppings – parmesan cheese, crushed red pepper flakes, fresh basil.
Topping Ideas
As you know, the topping ideas are endless when it comes to pizza! Here are some ideas:
Extra cheese – add different types of cheese to your pizza like parmesan, fresh mozzarella, provolone, goat cheese, etc. Spices and herbs – crushed red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, fresh basil, etc. Vegetables – mushrooms, chopped bell peppers, spinach, artichokes, roasted garlic… any vegetable is fair game in my book! Protein – add protein to your pizza with turkey sausage, pepperoni, meatless crumbles, etc.
Dinner in Under 15 Minutes
Dinner doesn’t get much easier than this! Spread your sauce of choice on top of each tortilla and top with shredded cheese. I recommend baking your tortilla pizza for the best results. There are a few ways you can do this:
Cast-iron skillet – The perfect way to create a crispy crust without using a pizza stone. Pizza stone – If you have a pizza stone, use it! Oven rack – ditch the pan and place your tortilla pizza right on the oven rack. I recommend putting a cookie sheet below the pizza to catch any melted cheese drips.
Watch your pizzas closely as they bake to make sure the tortillas don’t burn. You’ll know the pizzas are ready when the edges are browned and the cheese is bubbling. Top with red pepper flakes, parmesan and basil and enjoy!
