There is nothing that makes me happier than a good excuse to whip up pizza. Having a quick pizza recipe in your repertoire is essential for holiday entertaining, and pretty much year round.
What I love about this recipe is how versatile it is. I make it often when we have company for brunch. It’s quick and easy, plus you can customize the recipe to each person’s tastes.
We also make this as an appetizer recipe for parties. You can just cut it into small pieces and it becomes finger food for all your guests. They will love you so much for making this.
For me pizza is the ultimate comfort food. It’s a people pleaser, it can feed a crowd and it puts a smile on anyone’s face when you serve it. Pizza is the perfect party food.
I’m a thin crust girl, so making pizzas using tortillas makes me super happy. I get the best of both worlds. The tortillas cook up perfectly. Crispness in every bite.
You can pick up the perfect tortillas at Costco. That’s where we buy ours. There’s a brand called TortillaLand and I’m telling you right now they are amazing.
They are uncooked flour tortillas so they are as fresh as can be. You slide them in a hot pan and voila, perfectly cooked tortillas every single time. I dig that.
It’s incredibly cool to watch them puff up as they cook. You don’t need oil, just a hot pan. TortillaLand describes them as “Fresher Tasting Tortillas”, and I agree wholeheartedly.
I hope you enjoy celebrating with these Tortilla Pizzas with Roasted Red Peppers this holiday season Use #tortillalandholiday on social media to share your own creations.

Tortilla Pizzas with Roasted Red Peppers
Ingredients
- 8 TortillaLand tortillas
- 3/4 cup pizza sauce
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 1 jar 12 ounce of roasted red peppers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place 2 large cookie sheets near your work station.
- Heat 8 TortillaLand flour tortillas in a pan according to the package directions.Place cooked tortillas on the cookie sheets.
- In a small bowl combine the pizza sauce and sugar, stir well. Spoon over the cooked tortillas and smooth out.
- Sprinkle cheese evenly over each tortilla.
- In the same pan you cooked the tortillas in heat up 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour the roasted red peppers into the pan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the peppers just start to crisp on the edges. This takes about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Either chop them into pieces by hand or toss in a food processor and pulse briefly. You want them to still be chunky pieces, so chop them roughly, or pulse them briefly.
- Using tongs place the roasted red peppers randomly around the tops of the tortilla pizzas.
- Place the cookie sheets in the oven and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, you just want to cook them long enough to melt the cheese properly.
- Remove from oven, toss parsley over top.
- Serve with a big old TortillaLand loving smile!
These are just the prettiest tortilla pizzas I’ve ever made. There’s nothing like fresh tortillas when cooking up something fabulous. It makes all the difference in the world.
