Tortilla Pizzas

Obviously I haven't been feeling very adventurous in the kitchen over the past few weeks. Similar to my last post, tortilla pizzas are no-brainers. Except they are really mini geniuses. Look at all of the benefits:

• Great way to use up old tortillas (how else does one eat 150 tortillas before they expire?)
• Super fast (bakes in the oven for 15 minutes or less)
• Customizable and creative (Italian? Mexican? American? It all depends on your toppings)
• Cheap (tortillas + whatever you have in the fridge)

We used corn tortillas, so I instinctively went with Mexican pizzas (bottom pic). But my fiance actually created a very tasty Italian one using corn tortillas too (top pic).

Tortilla Pizza Recipe:

• tortillas (corn, wheat, flour, gluten-free, whatevs)
• toppings (whatever you want, below is for Mexican pizza)
• tomato paste
• refried beans
• minced garlic
• sliced red onion
• sliced mushrooms
• diced tomatoes
• fresh cilantro
• fresh arugula 
• salt, cumin, chili powder, black and cayenne pepper
• shredded cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Make tortilla pizzas (derp). Place them on a baking sheet, bake in the oven for 5 minutes and then check on them. Depending on how many toppings you added, they might be done already. I loaded mine up with beans, so it took another 10ish minutes to get a nice crispy tortilla crust. Enjoy!
