Mexican Pizza Recipe
Description
Mexican Pizza Recipe features 12 small flour tortillas spread with a thin layer of enchilada sauce, then layered with shredded cheddar, pickled jalapeños, diced red bell pepper, and finished with crumbled cotija cheese. Baking the tortillas at 350°F crisp the edges and melts the cheese, providing a crunchy, cheesy base. The topping of sour cream and fresh cilantro after baking adds creaminess and brightness. The mix of tangy sauce, salty cheeses, and spicy jalapeños creates a flavorful, textured dish that’s ideal for casual gatherings or shared snacks. An optional note explains how to stack two tortillas for a double-decker version, adding more layers of sauce and cheese for extra richness.
