Ingredients
- 3 medium tortillas (corn, flour, or whole wheat)
- ½ cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup sliced black olives (optional)
- ¼ cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
- ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut tortillas into triangles or squares with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
- Place tortilla pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
- Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on each piece.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
- Add olives, mushrooms, or other toppings as desired.
- Season with Italian herbs, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and edges are crispy.
- Let cool slightly before serving — they crisp more as they cool.
Notes
- Use corn tortillas for extra crispiness, or flour for a lighter texture.

- Mix in cheeses like cheddar or parmesan for added flavor.
- Top with veggies like cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, or spinach.
