Individual Tortilla Caprese Pizzas
All it takes is a bit of ingredient prep, and you can have some hot and tasty individual pizzas ready in no time at all.
Ingredients
- 8 " whole wheat tortillas
- softened butter
- basil pesto homemade or store bought
- julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes I prefer the oil packed variety
- fresh mozzarella packed in water cut into 1/2" pieces (I like to use the small balls and cut them into halves or quarters, but you can also cut up a larger ball or log)
- your favorite chopped fresh herbs or pizza seasoning I especially like to use fresh rosemary, thyme, oregano, and/or basil...use what you like!
- toasted pine nuts
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- I never use the same amount of ingredients, and like to switch up the ingredients with whatever we have on hand or are hungry for. But this caprese version is always a favorite. Here's our method!
- Heat a large electric or stovetop griddle to medium/medium-high to make more than one individual pizza at a time. Or use a large skillet on the stovetop to make them one by one.
- Take out as many tortillas as you want to make individual pizzas. Evenly butter one side of each tortilla and stack them on top of each other until ready to assemble. Then set out all your prepared ingredients so they are ready to assemble pizzas quickly.
- When the griddle is hot, add tortillas butter side down to the griddle. Quickly spread desired amount of pesto onto the top side of each tortilla. Then add sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella, herbs, pine nuts, and freshly ground pepper.
- Heat until buttered side of tortilla is browned and crisped, and the mozzarella is melty. Remove to a large pan or cutting board to cut into wedges. Serve hot.
