Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 4
Yields: 4
Ingredients
- 3 sticks light mozzarella string cheese
- six 6-inch corn tortilla
- 2 dashes salt
- 1⁄2 cup chopped mushroom
- 1⁄2 cup diced bell pepper
- 1⁄2 cup diced onion
- 1 cup jarred pizza sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons vegetarian parmesan cheese
- 17 slices turkey pepperoni, chopped (like the kind by Hormel)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet or ovenproof platter with nonstick spray and set aside.
- Break each string cheese stick into thirds and place in a blender or food processor -- blend at high speed until shredded/grated. (Or tear into pieces and roughly chop.) Set aside.
- To make the chips, stack tortillas and cut in half. Cut each stack of halves into 3 triangles, for a total of 36 pieces.
- Evenly lay tortilla triangles flat on the sheet or platter, and cover with a generous mist of nonstick spray. Sprinkle with a dash of salt. Flip triangles and sprinkle with another dash of salt.
- Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Carefully flip triangles and bake until crispy, about 5 minutes longer. (Leave oven on.).
- Meanwhile, bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add veggies and, stirring occasionally, cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Add pizza sauce and garlic powder. Mix well and continue to cook until hot.
- Evenly top chips with sauce. Sprinkle with Parm-style topping and shredded/grated cheese. Top with turkey pepperoni.
- Return to the oven until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. Enjoy!
