VERY YUMMY INDEED! True! Used wholemeal tortilla as pizza base too! Used roasted capsicum as had on hand today! GREAT sub for a tomato pasted pizza is what I can say! Used 2 tortillas, split spinach and low fat ricotta cheese! This recipe to me DID please! Split onions between two and parm cheese as well, When will I make again? Time will tell! No need for salt, used Splenda for sugar, this was GREAT! Finding this nutritious, delicious recipe must have been my fate! Thanks!

I made this last night using a full sized whole wheat Boboli pizza crust and doubling the quantities of the toppings. I used fresh basil and a bit of fresh tarragon too. I also used more arugula then the recipe called for. Exact measurements aren't really important. It makes an easy and delicious supper.

great recipe.... can vary it also. you can sub spinach with thawed frozen chopped broccoli and also for an optional appetizer idea...instead of pizza crust you can spread 1 tsp. of mixture onto each of 48 crackers (triscuits) and bake 5 minutes at 350 degrees until hot and bubbly-serve warm.
