Delicious and easy-to-make Pizzadillas combine all the cheesy, savory goodness of pizza stuffed inside a crispy tortilla. Loaded with mozzarella, pepperoni, veggies, and mushrooms, these skillet-cooked treats are perfect for a quick lunch or snack, served with a rich pizza dipping sauce.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 10-inch flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 30 pepperoni slices
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2.25 oz can sliced black olives, drained
  • 1 can mushrooms, drained

For Dipping

  • 1/2 batch Thick & Rich Pizza Sauce


Instructions

  1. Prep the Vegetables and Toppings: Thinly slice the bell pepper and red onion. Drain the sliced black olives and mushrooms thoroughly to avoid sogginess during cooking.
  2. Assemble Each Pizzadilla: Lay a tortilla flat and sprinkle 1/6 cup of shredded mozzarella evenly over half the tortilla. Layer pepperoni slices, bell pepper, red onion, olives, and mushrooms on top of the cheese. Then sprinkle the remaining 1/6 cup of mozzarella cheese over the toppings. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over to cover the fillings, creating a half-moon shape.
  3. Cook in Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the folded pizzadilla in the pan and cook until the bottom side is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip the pizzadilla and cook the other side until it is also golden and the cheese inside is fully melted, another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Slice and Serve: Remove the cooked pizzadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Using a pizza cutter, slice into thirds. Serve warm with the thick and rich pizza sauce for dipping.
