Vegetable Fajitas Tortilla Pizza
This Vegetable Fajitas Tortilla Pizza combines sautéed bell peppers, onions, zucchini, corn, and spices to create a flavorful vegetable fajita mix served atop thin tortillas with vegan mozzarella. The vegetables are cooked with a blend of cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, and cayenne for a smoky, slightly spicy flavor enhanced by a dash of lemon. The pizza is baked or grilled until the vegan cheese melts, offering a unique fusion of fajita seasoning and crispy tortilla base.
