Quick and easy recipe for how to make a healthier pepperoni pizza quesadilla with vegetables.
Ingredients
49-inchwhole wheat low carb tortillas
1 1/2cupspizza sauce
24 slicesturkey pepperoni
1/2cupdiced onions
1cupwhite mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups part skim Mozzarella Cheese
Instructions
Preheat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the skillet with nonstick cooking spray and lay 1 tortilla.
Spoon and spread 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce over the tortilla.
Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of cheese OVER HALF OF THE TORTILLA, followed by the turkey pepperoni, 2 tablespoons of the onions, 2 tablespoons of the green peppers, ¼ cup of the mushrooms, optional crushed red pepper, and the remaining 3 tablespoons cheese.
Fold the tortilla in half, covering the filling, and cook until the quesadilla is golden brown, about 2-3 additional minutes.
Carefully flip the quesadilla, so the filling doesn’t fall out. Continue to cook until the other side is golden brown, about another 2-3 minutes. Set it aside and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with other tortillas, or have several skillets going at once (tough, but doable if you have all your ingredients prepped and ready!)
Slice in half and serve each quesadilla with a ¼ cup pizza sauce.
