Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 whole wheat tortillas
1/2 cup pasta sauce, divided (Pasta Sauce #1 highly recommended)
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
cooked sausage or any other favorite pizza toppings
nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Spread pizza sauce on one tortilla.
  • Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Add toppings of your choice, or add some extra cheese and keep it simple.
  • Top with second tortilla.
  • Spray the outside of the pizzadilla with spray butter or non-stick cooking spray. I find it easiest to spray the pan, place the pizzadilla in the pan, and then spray the top side, so that all of the ingredients won't fall out trying to juggle it.
  • Cook until golden brown and cheese is melted in a pan over medium heat, flipping once.
  • Cut into wedges. Use remaining sauce for dipping!

I make this for Meatless (lacto-ovo) Monday Meals. It is a big hit! The flavor profile is complex and savory and you can add a dash of hot sauce to spice things up even more. I cut the pizzadillas in half for the kids.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 (6 inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 poblano chile, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
salt to taste
¼ cup mild enchilada sauce
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
¼ cup sour cream
½ cup crumbled queso fresco
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 dash hot pepper sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place tortillas on baking sheet covered with foil; lightly brush each with olive oil, and prick all over with fork.
  • Bake tortillas in the preheated oven until they are puffed and golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool on cooling rack.
  • Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, poblano chile, and red bell pepper; cook and stir until onions are translucent and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in black beans, corn, garlic, oregano, and salt; cook and stir until mixture is heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Return tortillas to the foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer; spoon 1 tablespoon enchilada sauce over each tortilla. Top with 1/4 of the black bean and corn mixture and 1/4 of the shredded Mexican cheese.
  • Bake pizzadillas in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Remove pizzadillas from oven; top each with sour cream, queso fresco, and cilantro. Add a dash of hot pepper sauce to each slice.

Tips:

  • For a crispier quesadilla, use a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tortilla is golden brown.
  • If you don't have a skillet, you can also cook quesadillas in a panini press or on a griddle.
  • Be sure to use a good quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella.
  • For a more flavorful quesadilla, add some cooked meat, vegetables, or beans.
  • Serve quesadillas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or Pico de gallo.

Conclusion:

Pizzadillas are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're also a great way to use up leftover pizza ingredients. So next time you have a pizza night, be sure to make a few extra slices so you can make pizzadillas the next day!
