Easy Pizzadillas

Submitted by starcrack

"This sprang from a love of thin crust pizza and standing in front of the grill. It ended up being a huge hit with the neighbors after they wandered over to see what we were cooking."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2 flour tortillas
• 1 cup spaghetti sauce
• pizza toppings
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1⁄4 cup parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons oregano
• 1 tablespoon garlic salt
• 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

directions

1. Place a flour tortilla on a large plate or cutting board and spread with a thin layer of spaghetti sauce (you're favorite jarred brand or leftover).
2. Season with oregano, garlic salt, Parmesian, pepper flakes, or whatever herbs you prefer.
3. Add a thin layer of shredded Mozarella cheese.
4. Layer your pizza toppings of choice. (I used pepperoni, thinly-sliced green peppers, and sliced black olives.).
5. Add another thin layer of Mozarella.
6. Place another tortilla on top.
7. Melt butter, Parmesian, oregano, and garlic salt together in a
8. microwavable dish.
9. Brush the top tortilla with the herb butter and invert onto a grill (set to low heat) with the butter side down. Brush the other side and cover the grill.
10. Flip the pizzadilla when the cheese is melted and the bottom tortilla is crisp.
11. Once the other tortilla is crisp, remove from the grill and slice into quarters with a pizza cutter.
12. An easy dipping sauce can be made by mixing spaghetti sauce with the leftover herb butter and heating.

I really enjoyed this recipe. I did however cut back on the garlic salt. :)

I would suggest using less garlic salt as well.

This was ok. I like the idea, but there was way too much garlic salt for our tastes, maybe half the amount, would be much more feasible. Other than that, super easy to make.

These were really good! My husband loved them. An easy pizza to put on the table without the work of making a crust. Thank you for the idea. The only thing I'll change next time is to back off on the garlic salt. Too salty for us...but there were certainly none left!

My family loved these. They were delicious, quick and easy. Interesting variation of quesadillas (and clever play on words).
