FIESTA CORN TORTILLA PIZZAS

FIESTA APPETIZER
This dip is always a big hit with men-maybe because of the hearty blend of flavors. It stands up great as a leftover besides...if there's any left over. I was raised on a Montana ranch, and my grandmother taught me to cook when I was 10 years old. My husband and I (we have one married daughter) are retired now. To stay active, I bowl and do crafts. My collection of cookbooks keeps right on growing, too-I started it more than 50 years ago.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Dough: For a thin and crispy crust, use pizza dough made with bread flour. For a thicker, chewier crust, use dough made with all-purpose flour.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your pizza will taste. This is especially true for the tomatoes, basil, and cheese.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pizza: When adding toppings, don't overload the pizza. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy.
- Bake the Pizza at a High Temperature: The higher the temperature, the crispier the crust will be. Most pizzas should be baked at around 450-500 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the Pizza Cool Before Slicing: Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help prevent the toppings from sliding off.
Conclusion:
With its vibrant flavors and endless topping possibilities, Fiesta Pizza is a delicious and versatile dish that's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a showstopping party appetizer, this pizza is sure to please. So next time you're craving a taste of Mexico, give Fiesta Pizza a try. You won't be disappointed!
