Very Good, and a life saver for those of us low carbing. I really miss pizza and this hit the spot, almost like a thin crust pizza I did not fry it in the pan but placed it on a cookie sheet added the topping and baked till everything melted, I used a product called carb choppers tortillas that are sold at my Sams Club. Thanks for the great recipe.
