I'm pregnant, it's 10 am, and I need pizza NOW but don't want or need a ton of extra calories. This recipe was perfect for my needs! I made it very simply by cutting a large tortilla in half for 2 layers, spraying the bottom with spray (genius!), putting a little Mexican cheese between the layers, and topping it with pasta sauce (I know, it's lame, but it's what I had), spinach, and mozarella cheese. I put it on the tray in a toaster oven for about 10 minutes and then removed the tray and put it directly on the rack for about another 10. The "crust" is perfect! If I had time to fancy up my sauce, chop some garlic, or get more creative with my toppings, this would be beyond fantastic for those who like thin crust pizza. Thanks for sharing.

I treated this recipe like a science project, making several variations until I felt like I had perfected it (I actually then ended up posting a new recipe at that point, because I'd made so many modifications). <br/><br/>So, here's what I learned: <br/><br/>1. One tortilla will make a mushy mess.<br/>2. Two tortillas was perfect for us. I'm sure more is even tastier, but we didn't want the calories.<br/>3. The olive oil spray technique is absolutely essential; without it, you will get mush.<br/>4. A pizza stone adds crispiness.<br/><br/>Thanks for posting!

I had a bit of a problem with the bottom tortilla. First two pizzas, prepared as directed using 3, after 25 min were crisp on the edges, but really soft in the middle. Very tasty, but you could not pick the slices up nor cut them easily with a fork. Ok, I think, I just put too many toppings on. Third one made for husband later. I decide to precook the bottom tortilla for a bit to give it a head start. Decreased toppings while keeping in mind that too many toppings would give the same result. Same result. Oven temp maybe? Would like to say however, that even though husband couldn't pick up nor cut slice with a fork (he used a knife) he actually complimented the pizza. And that is VERY unusual for a super picky person! He tossed last night's dinner in the garbage and refused to eat it! Thank you very much for sharing.

I am a Southern Belle through and through seeing as my upbringing was in LA........That would be Lower Alabama. I think growing up in a Southern family requires you to know how to make people happy by feeding them. So it became my specialty.

<br>I love to collect recipes. I'm always hitting thrift stores in hopes to find old cookbooks. I may be a little overloaded on the books, but you can never have to many right?

<br>I enjoy going to small little cooking classes when I can.I was able to go to a weekend cooking class in Italy while my family was stationed in the UK. That is where my picture posted here came from. I had such a wonderful experience!

<br>In my spare time I bowl on a couple of leagues. I also had a summer job where I learned to do some beaded jewelry, and it kind of became a liked hobby of mine.
