Tortilla pizza



Perfect Week Day Pizza

This one is truly à la Scott.  My man is a pizza lover, well I'd say it's à la Claudie also because I'm French Canadian and we like our pizza all dressed which means with peppers, mushrooms and pepperoni.  To make it palatable  for Scott, I substitute the peppers for string beans and the mushrooms with carrot ribbons.  On the picture the string beans looks like peppers right?

Tortilla pizza

Ingredients

1 tortilla per person
A thin layer of pizza sauce
Mozzarella cheese to taste
1 tablespoon of parmesan
A handful of string beans
A few carrots ribbons, shaved with the peeler
Some kind of meat (optional).  On the picture is sliced homemade left over chicken meatballs from yesterday.



Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Spray olive oil on a tortilla and put in the oven for 3 mintes to crisp up.  Spread the sauce, the cheeses, the veggies and meat if using.   Cook 10 minutes + 2 minutes on broil, or to desired donness. 

That's a quick fix!
