What Do I Need to Make Stuffed Crust Tortilla Pizza?

(I’ve linked the actual ingredients I use and recommend below. See recipe card for measurements and details.)

• Burrito-size flour tortilla (10 inches in diameter)
• Mozzarella cheese sticks
• Pizza sauce
• Shredded mozzarella cheese
• Small salami or pepperoni slices
• Shredded parmesan
• Butter
• Garlic salt
• Grated parmesan cheese
• Fresh basil
• Baking sheet or pizza pan 
• Parchment paper or nonstick cooking spray
• Toothpicks
• Basting brush

How to Make Stuffed Crust Tortilla Pizza

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place the tortilla on a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza pan that’s been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
• Slice each cheese stick in half lengthwise. Place a cheese stick, sliced side down, on four opposite sides of the tortilla.
• Roll the edge of the tortilla up over and slightly under each cheese stick, securing each side with two toothpicks (through the cheese stick and into the bottom of the tortilla). Once all of the cheese sticks are wrapped in the tortilla and secured with toothpicks, this will create a square shape.
• Spread the inside of the tortilla with the pizza sauce and then sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese. 

• Arrange the salami slices on top of the cheese and then sprinkle with the shredded parmesan cheese.
• Stir together the melted butter and garlic salt. Brush the stuffed edges of the tortilla pizza generously with the melted garlic butter. 
• Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese in the middle is bubbling.
• Remove from the oven and let set for a few minutes before removing the toothpicks.
• Garnish with grated parmesan and chopped fresh basil.

How to Store a Stuffed Crust Tortilla Pizza

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

To reheat, warm a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a slice of pizza and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until the crust starts to crisp again and sizzle around the edges. To get the cheese a bit more melty, add a few drops of water to the pan away from the pizza. Cover with a lid, and let steam for another minute or two until the cheese is melted completely. 

Alternatively, reheat in a 350°F oven on a prepared baking sheet until heated through, about 5 minutes.
