Gluten Free Tortilla Pizza

We wanted pizza for dinner tonight and this gluten free tortilla pizza turned out great. And by crisping up the tortilla first, I was even able pick up the slices by hand to eat them (which is actually kind of ironic since I always used to  eat my pizza with a knife and fork).

I made two pizzas, one for dinner tonight and one for my work lunch tomorrow!  I've tried some specifically gluten free pizza crusts, but I actually think the "rice tortilla" pizza is the greatest of them all! The best part is how quick it is to make, using simple, on-hand ingredients.

Yum Yum Yum... this pizza was so good!

Gluten Free Tortilla Pizza

Yield:  1 (big) serving

1 Tortilla (gluten free rice tortilla)
2 Tbs pizza sauce or pasta sauce

1 cup cheese, shredded (I used mozza and cheddar)

Pizza toppings (I used Pepperoni)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Place tortilla directly on oven rack and cook for a few minutes until lightly crisp.
3. Place tortilla on a baking sheet and top with sauce, cheese and pepperoni.
4. Place in the oven and bake until toppings are heated and cheese is bubbly. 
5. Slice pizza and serve!

I topped my pizza with Parmesan cheese after it came out of the oven. I find this soaks up some of the grease from the pepperoni... plus it just tastes good! :)
