Makes 6 servings. 1 pizza per serving.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 to 15 minutes
Ingredients
12 small corn or flour tortillas vegetable oil or margarine
1 (16-ounce) can refried beans
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 ounces fresh or canned green chili peppers, diced
6 tablespoons red taco sauce
3 cups chopped vegetables, such as broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, and red bell pepper
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded part-skim Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Preparation
1. Brush one side of each of two tortillas with water. Press the wet sides of the tortillas together to form a thick crust for the pizza.
