Flour Tortilla Pizza Ingredients

You’ll need just a few basic ingredients to make these homemade tortilla pizzas:

  • Tortillas – I prefer to use flour tortillas (burrito size) but you can also use sprouted or whole wheat tortillas.
  • Sauce – Use pizza sauce, tomato sauce, marinara sauce, pesto sauce, bbq sauce, olive oil…or any other spread you find in your fridge.
  • Cheese – Mozzarella cheese is a pizza classic, but you can also use feta, parmesan cheese, cheddar, blue…basically anything goes.
  • Toppings – See my list of toppings below

How to Make Tortilla Pizzas

Let’s get to the good part, making pizza with tortillas!

  • Toast the tortillas. This step is key for a crispy tortilla pizza! Watch them closely as you just want them to get golden brown and crispy. Toast to desired level of crispness.
  • Top your pizza. Add pizza sauce (or marinara if that’s all you have!) and sprinkle with cheese, veggies, and any meat if desired.
  • Bake. Bake on pizza pan or baking sheet or place under broiler until cheese is melted. Serve with red pepper flakes if desired.

Homemade Tortilla Pizza Topping Ideas

Now that you know how to use tortillas as pizza crust, it’s time to talk toppings! I have a BIG shortcut for you, that you’ll want to take advantage of.

First, check your fridge. This tortilla pizza recipe is a great way to use up almost-bad veggies. If you need some more toppings, stop by the SALAD BAR at your local grocery store. This way everything is already chopped and ready-to-go and you don’t have to buy everything separately. WIN-WIN.

Here are some of my favorite flour tortilla pizza toppings:

  • Mushrooms
  • Green peppers or any bell peppers
  • Red onion or white onion
  • Greens like spinach or arugula
  • Artichoke hearts
  • Olives
  • Fresh basil
  • Roasted grape tomatoes
  • Sun-dried tomatoes
  • Pineapple
  • Cheese
  • Meat – Pepperoni, sausage, prosciutto, salami, ham

Storage Instructions

These pizzas are best eaten fresh. But you can store any leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days.

How to reheat

Reheat tortilla pizzas in a 375 degree F oven.

Can you freeze tortilla pizzas?

You could freeze the tortilla pizza, but because they are made so quickly, I would recommend making them fresh.

How to Serve Tortilla Pizzas to the Whole Family

You’ll be able to feed your kids any meal, which will help ensure that they are eating a variety of nutritious foods – with plenty of play food sprinkled in. 😉

This is a great meal to let the kids get involved with! After you toast the crust, let them spread on the pizza sauce and add their toppings. They’ll love it AND get to practice some cooking skills.

    I can’t give five star because I used mini tortillas instead of what was recommended but boy were they delicious! The mini ones charred up nicely for 3 minutes on each side and I used a mix of shredded cheeses, fresh basil and Hunts tomato sauce. My daughter said she liked these better than English muffin pizzas, so that is telling you something! Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe!
