Does anyone remember, say late 60's, when there was a method of making pizza
using flour tortillas? I've got the tortillas, sauce and odds and ends and not a great deal of motivation for a meal tonight. I've never done this myself and can't decide if oven temp should be high or medium. What say you? Janet |

If it was a viable concept, everyone and their dog would be doing it, we'd have 10 mega tortilla/pizza chains nationwide, and Gourmet frozen foods would be selling them fer $.88 ea in your grocer's cold case. Has this happened? No. Is this a good idea? No. If you have no love of good food, persue this question. If you love good pizza, break off while you still can! ![]() nb |

She wanted something that didn't take much effort, using the ingredients she had there. She had tortillas, and dribs and drabs of ingredients.. As she said, she didn't have much motivation to do much beyond that...so even if she loves good pizza, it would take too more effort than she wanted to put into it. Christine |

We make tortilla pizzas for lunch quite often... but since I am avoiding gluten, we use corn tortillas. Add sauce, seasonings, pepperoni and cheese and anything else you like and stick in the over at 400 until it is as done as you want it. I would never pretend it is a gourmet pizza, but for a quick lunch it is pretty tasty. George L |

Not gourmet but better, cheaper, quicker than Taco Bell or whatever your drive-thru. If you can get pita, throw some beans on it, I'm not going to complain about arab pizza. |

True thin crust pizza has a wafer thin crispy crust. Hard to find and some don't like it, but I figure any good style of pizza is good in its own right. I like best the style I grew up with but that doesn't mean I fail to like good examples of other styles. It should be possible to make a good crispy true thin crust pizza based on a flour tortilla. I experimented with it a bit and never did manage it, though. Then again I never managed a true thin crust pizza starting from scratch dough either. I still think it's possible. > We make tortilla pizzas for lunch quite often... but since I am avoiding > gluten, we use corn tortillas. Then back in 1999 I figured out I am wheat intolerant. Good bye indigestion unless I deliberately intend it. Some meals are worth deliberate indigestion. Corn tort pizza work find, don't give me indigestion, aren't special. > Add sauce, seasonings, pepperoni and > cheese and anything else you like and stick in the over at 400 until it > is as done as you want it. > > I would never pretend it is a gourmet pizza, but for a quick lunch it is > pretty tasty. But I can tune up the sauce with extra oregano fresh from the plant, cheese that I grated myself, my favorite brand of pepperoni and so on. That makes it good even on a corn tort. |

A tortilla pizza would be a pizza with strips of tortilla
as a topping. Something maybe Wolfgang Puck would do. Steve |

Doh!!!.... no longer a quesadilla, is it? I will concede this: maybe with a flour gordo tortilla and not a single Mexican ingredient for a 5 mile radius, only Ital tomato sauce, real Ital cheese (no Monteray Jack!!) and some decent pizza toppings, it may fly. I'll give it a shot. Not conceding, mind you, but..... nb |

Forgot! Ingredients should include 1-2 cloves of well-diced garlic, and a pinch each of oregano, coriander, basil, and parsley. Under the 'essentials' part. |

I have no problem with someone who lacks the energy slapping together an open faced whatever for a quick meal. But I teach kids how to make real pizza all the time. It isn't difficult and properly done is nutritious food. If you only teach them how to slap together some species of open faced whatever then that will be all they know. We've reached a point in which many kids from many countries don't understand food and can only assemble processed crap and I think now is a good time to stop encouraging that and start thinking about eating real food processed by yourself. |

I'm not talking about having them cook properly. I'm talking about them having some FUN with food. That's just as important - to have them enjoy themselves, instead of looking at it as a chore. Besides, isn't that what we're doing? Not all cooking needs to take hours and involve intricate recipes. |

I did not know that - I've got a few italian recipe books around here, they always tend to take at least a couple'a hours to put together. Any good links? |

The >complicated recipes are mostly those made up in other countries to be >"Italianish". No kidding. And pizza has gotten even less "complicated" because Trader Joe's and a couple of other forward-thinking grocers sell bags of (fresh) dough. Preheat oven, roll out the dough, top and cook. But good tortillas and other flatbreads make excellent quick meals. I personally would like to be able to replicate Whole Foods' (Fabulous Flats) naan because they are my new favorite bread for quick lunch/dinner. They're foldy, but substantial enough to be a good base. Charlotte -- |

But I live here and do what I do BECAUSE I think people should eat healthy but delicious, not that I got to that point because I came here and went to school. Kids think cooking is fun even if you are making meatloaf, they don't have to have marshmallows and chocolate or boxed mixes. They like adults paying attention and helping them learn things and they will almost always eat a wider variety of things if they've helped cook them at least once. |

It is all just stuff - veg, meat, sauce, cheese - on some sort of bread. You need a rx? Eat what you got. B |

What say >you? >Janet > Ignore notbob's comment. He's wrong. For a lazy meal it works fine if you use two tortillas. Sprinkle just enough cheese between the tortillas to hold them together when the cheese melts and you'll be fine. Top it like you would any pizza and bake on a sheet at 375. It probably will take about 12 minutes. I've done it many times. It's not like real pizza but sure works when you're lazy. Lou |

So far in most of your posts in this thread. =/ IDK - All Lou did was suggest what I already had done. Yanno. Ignore that spiel about "if you have no love of good food". |

More over my employment of tracking down people who are avoiding debts/family payments/court orders/warrants. You tend to develop a sense of social sadism, and a tendency to say it how you see it. But then there are also people who are so incredibly sensitive that they take offense to absolutely everything. Including having it pointed out that they're coming off as a jerk by being that sensitive. |
