Tortilla Pizza Wrap Fusion (Printable version)

Handheld tortillas layered with zesty sauce, melted cheese, and fresh toppings, crisped for a flavorful fusion dish.

# What you need:

→ Base

01 - 2 large flour tortillas (10-inch)

→ Sauce

02 - 4 tablespoons pizza sauce or marinara sauce

→ Cheese

03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

→ Toppings

04 - 8 to 10 slices pepperoni (optional)
05 - 1/4 cup sliced black olives
06 - 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
07 - 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
08 - 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
09 - 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves (optional)

→ For Cooking

10 - 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

# Steps to follow:

01 - Place one tortilla flat on a cutting board and make a single cut from the center to the edge to form a radius cut.
02 - Spread 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
03 - Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauced tortilla.
04 - Distribute chosen toppings evenly across each quarter of the tortilla, such as pepperoni, olives, and vegetables.
05 - Starting at the cut, fold each quarter over the next to form a layered triangle-shaped wrap. Repeat with the second tortilla.
06 - Warm olive oil or butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
07 - Place wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
08 - Remove wraps from skillet, allow to cool slightly, cut in half if desired, and serve warm.

# Expert tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in under 20 minutes, which means dinner on nights when nothing else feels possible.
  • Every bite is crispy on the outside and melty inside, with toppings that stay exactly where you put them.
  • You can customize each quarter differently, so even two people with totally different tastes can share one skillet.
02 -
  • Don't skip the cut from center to edge; it's what makes the folding actually possible, and I learned this by trying to fold a whole tortilla and ending up with a torn mess.
  • Press gently with your spatula while it cooks—this isn't a pancake you want to flip aggressively, just a gentle reminder to the cheese that it should melt into all the crevices.
03 -
  • Room-temperature tortillas are more forgiving than cold ones; they fold without cracking and cook more evenly.
  • If your sauce is watery, drain it slightly before spreading—this prevents the tortilla from getting soggy while cooking.
