Flip It Tortilla Pan Pizza - Eating At Home

 Come on in, have a sit, welcome to "my kitchen".

I was so busy this morning, that I actually forgot to pick out some things for lunch and dinner. My kids are off this week for spring break. If you know you know. My 16 year old, can eat now and again in 30 minutes. Endless pit of a stomach. 

The simple tortilla, can be the gateway to all kinds of snacks, or even a meal. Lately I have been buying the burrito size tortillas at my Sam's Club but they are in all the stores. I usually get the low carb ones for myself. 

I had a pack of the burrito sized tortillas. Find a pan that fits your buritto. That is helpful to be able to flip it over. 

So without to much let me see if I can tell you how to do this simple, flip it tortilla pan pizza.

Flip It Tortilla Pan Pizza

Stuff to gather:

~toppings you would like with your pizza

~spices (garlic powder, onion powder, italian, oregano, basil -what you like)

~sauce (I found no need for it, but if you want then what you like)

~cheeses that you like - I did a handful

~tortilla (the size you want)

The putting together:

1. Spray your pan, then lay in the veggies first if you are using peppers, onions, mushrooms, and sautée them a little to get them tender.

*If you are not that type of person then move to step 2

2. Turn off the heat for a minute. 

3. In the pan (if you have veggies just spread out a little to cover bottom of pan) then meats, spreading it over the entire pan evenly, then the cheese you like and if you like sauce, drip a little all over the top, (not too much, I found I did not even need the sauce, if you like a little tomato flavor use canned or chopped tomatoes) all the while keeping the watery contents down. 

4. Lay the tortilla over it all, turn heat back on, and continue to press down on the tortilla. This is where the cheese will melt and meld with all the stuff under the tortilla and make it easy to flip over.

*I check under a corner to see if we are melding and if the cheese is crusting to the pan.

5. Flip it over and let the tortilla side, get crispy and toasty.

*I put a plate over my pan and flipped onto plate and then slid back into the pan.

6. When crispy like you like, slid back out and let cool a minute and cut.

My opinion, this was a really nice way to make a quick pizza-ish meal. We usually get the NYC style from Papa Johns and with using a non-low carb, I could fold it exactly like we do those and I found it to be texture wise a good match. The taste was on point and filling. 

What I know

The pack of burrito size tortilla can be $ 4 for 8. Cheese 8oz $3. Mushrooms, onions, peppers $2.00. and some sauce $1.00. You could make 8 for less than a large everything pizza ny style from Papa Johns. Healthier because you know what you put on it. Quicker than waiting and going to get it. 

Nothing is better than a nice warm piece of pizza. Especially if you like it garlicy, cheesy...mmmmmm
