Pepperoni Pizzadillas
A quick and fun mashup of quesadillas and pepperoni pizza! Crispy flour tortillas filled with gooey mozzarella, zesty pizza sauce, and pepperoni — ready in just 10 minutes for the ultimate lazy-day lunch or snack.
Equipment
- skillet or non-stick pan
- spatula
- Knife
- Cutting board
Ingredients
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 slices pepperoni
- 2 tbsp pizza sauce (thick style recommended)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla flat in the skillet.
- Sprinkle cheese over half of the tortilla. Layer pepperoni slices on top, then add a bit more cheese to hold them in place. Spread pizza sauce over the empty half of the tortilla.
- Once cheese begins to melt, fold the tortilla in half over the filling. Press gently to seal.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Cheese should be fully melted inside.
- Remove from skillet, slice into wedges, and serve hot with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
✨ Variations: Add sautéed peppers, onions, or mushrooms for veggies. Swap pepperoni for sausage, bacon, or chicken. Try different cheeses or sauces like pesto or Alfredo.
💡 Tip: Always layer cheese directly on the tortilla before adding sauce — it keeps the pizzadilla crispy, not soggy.
