Ingredient List

  • 2 Old El Paso™ Large Flour Tortillas
  • 6 tablespoons Old El Paso™ Hot Thick 'N Chunky Salsa
  • 200g ready-grated mozzarella
  • 10 slices pizza pepperoni
  • 35g Old El Paso™ Jalapeños, (drained weight), roughly chopped (optional)

To serve (optional)

  • Rocket leaves and a drizzle of olive oil

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C for fan assisted ovens)/Gas Mark 7.
  2. Place the tortillas onto one large baking sheet or two smaller ones. Spread the salsa evenly over the tortillas, almost to the edges.
  3. Scatter over two-thirds of the mozzarella, then top with the pepperoni slices (5 on each pizza). Scatter over the rest of the mozzarella and the jalapeños, if using.
  4. Bake for 7-8 minutes or until the tortillas are crisp around the edges and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately with a side salad of rocket leaves drizzled with a little olive oil, if you like.

Expert Tips

  • You can top these quick pizzas with anything you have on hand in the fridge or store cupboard. Try shredded cooked chicken or flaked tinned tuna with sweetcorn, ruffles of ham with thinly sliced mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes, or for a veggie version, use drained and thinly sliced marinated red and yellow peppers with olives.
  • These pizzas can also be cooked, one at a time, in an air fryer. Set to 190°C and cook for 3-4 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
