Quickie Mexican Pizza for One

echo echo's Note:

Something I often make for lunch or supper when I'm on the fly and eating alone (though of course if someone else is around I'll make one for them, too--big of me, don't you think?). Sometimes in place of the cheddar or mixed Mexican cheeses, I use shredded pepper jack cheese (Monterey Jack with jalapeno peppers) and omit the chilies.

• Total Time: 11 mins
• Prep Time: 1 mins

• 2 tablespoons diced green chilies

Directions:

1. Spread toppings on tortilla in the order mentioned.

I made this exactly as written and it was very yummy! The hubby added jalapenos to his and he was a big fan also! We had these alongside a bowl of tortilla soup and it was a wonderful combination. I loved the way the edges of the pizza got crisp but the center stayed soft. You can bet your boots that we'll have these again, thanks so much for posting your recipe :)

Yum. An easy lunch for me this past weekend. I used two small low carb tortillas but the same amount of topping. I used refried beans and a little less 2% cheese. Plus some good salsa we get at Sam's Club. A healthy and quick lunch!

Quick and tasty, which is just what I needed on a busy Thursday night when DH worked late.I used some leftover fat-free refried beans, spread on a spinach tortilla, then salsa, then a Mexi-blend cheese. I topped with a dollop of sour cream and a bit of hot sauce.
