Tortilla pizza is a super simple lunch or dinner idea made with ingredients you probably already have in the kitchen!
Thin and Crispy Tortilla Pizzas are a one of my stand-by afternoon treats. I try to make them when my kids are napping so they don’t devour my whole lunch. (Try it with a side of fruit salad or cool whip fruit salad!).
