Pizzadillas
Description
This Pizzadillas recipe uses simple ingredients: flour tortillas filled with shredded mozzarella cheese, sliced pepperoni, thinly sliced bell peppers, red onion, black olives, and canned mushrooms. A half batch of thick and rich pizza sauce is served for dipping. To prepare, cheese is layered inside the folded tortilla along with toppings to secure fillings during cooking.
Cooking on medium heat in a skillet crisps the tortilla sides to a bronze golden while melting the cheese inside, creating contrasts in texture. Once cooked on both sides and cheese is melted, the pizzadilla is sliced into thirds for easy serving. The toasted crust yields crunch, balancing the soft cheese and moist toppings within.
Pizzadillas work well as a quick snack, appetizer, or casual lunch. They are portable and customizable, allowing for a variety of add-ins beyond the suggested vegetables and pepperoni. The dipping sauce boosts pizza-inspired flavor while adding moisture.
Ingredients
- 6 flour tortillas $1.34, 10-inch
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese $1.75, shredded
- 30 pepperoni $1.38, slices
- 1 bell pepper $0.99
- 1/2 red onion $0.42
- 2.25oz can black olive $1.29, sliced
- 1 can mushrooms $0.85
- 1/2 batch pizza sauce $1.20, Thick & Rich
Instructions
- Prep the ingredients by thinly slicing the vegetables and draining the olives and mushrooms.
- For each pizzadilla: Measure 1/3 cup of shredded cheese. Sprinkle half of the cheese over one half of the tortilla, add toppings and then sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. Fold the empty side of the tortilla over the toppings.
- Place the pizzadilla in a prewarmed skillet (medium heat) and cook until brown and crispy on the bottom. Carefully flip the pizzadilla over and cook until brown and crispy on the second side. Once both sides are crisp and the cheese is melted inside, slice into thirds with a pizza cutter. Dip in the pizza sauce prior to eating.
