Dagwood's Tortilla Pizza Recipe
I made this up while cooking for a family of 5 adults, when no one else was particularly interested in working over a stove. I grew up on casseroles, and what is a casserole but layers of ingredients baked in a pan? Pizza… casserole… hey!
Being the cheapskate I am, I use tortillas instead of dough or noodles. Less prep time, and tortillas were always eaten at the house. The ingredients can be swapped out for your favorites, but this is what worked for me.
- Non-stick cooking spray
- 1 (10 count) pkg. flour tortillas, burrito size
- 1 (14oz.) jar pizza sauce
- 1 (3-1/2oz.) pkg. sliced pepperoni
- 3 fresh mushrooms or 2 (4.5 oz) canned mushrooms
- 1 (8 oz.) can pitted olives (sliced or diced)
- 1/2 lb. shredded mozz. or colby cheese
- 4 Tbsp parmesan cheese
- Grease bottom of casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Layer tortillas in pan until bottom no longer shows. If tortillas are too large, break in half and fit split end to edge. (You may want to do this to form solid layer on bottom.)
- Spread dollop of sauce evenly over tortillas. Use more if you prefer.
- Add one (1) layer of topping over sauce. Meat is recommended first, as other toppings may leave bottom layer “soggy.”
- Add layer of shredded cheese
- Repeat steps 2-5, changing toppings each time.
- When you reach the top of the pan, top it off with the rest of the shredded cheese and the parmesan as well.
- Bake for 15 minutes at about 375*.
