Let’s get cooking and make some cheesy magic happen!

Ingredients:​

• 4 large flour tortillas
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
• 1/2 cup sliced black olives (optional)
• 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (optional)
• 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
• Olive oil or cooking spray for the pan
• Grated Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes for serving (optional)

Instructions:​

1. Prep Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and have them ready. This will make the assembly process quick and smooth.
2. Heat the Pan: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil or spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3. Assemble the Quesadilla: Place one tortilla in the skillet. Spread about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Add the Fillings: Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Add your favorite toppings like pepperoni, black olives, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano and basil for that authentic pizza flavor.
5. Top It Off: Place another tortilla on top, pressing down lightly to hold everything together.
6. Cook Until Golden: Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a large spatula, and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
7. Repeat: Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
8. Slice and Serve: Once all your quesadillas are cooked, slice them into wedges. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes if you like a little extra kick.
9. Enjoy: Serve these delicious pizza quesadillas hot, with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping if desired.

Get ready to enjoy a fun, cheesy, and absolutely delicious meal that’s perfect for any occasion. Buon appetito!

I tried making pizza quesadillas last night, and they were a huge hit! I used pepperoni, mozzarella, and a bit of marinara sauce - so simple but sooo delicious. It's like having the best of both worlds in every bite. Can't wait to experiment with different toppings next time.
