EASY TORTILLA PIZZA
This is an extremely easy/fast way to prepare a delicious pizza that is light enough to be a snack, serves well as an appetizer, or is so good that is can be devoured alone! I make this often when entertaining guests and it always goes fast. You can make any sort of topping variations. The one below is the classic way I usually prepare it. I cook this also with my family. Each person gets their own tortilla to, as my kids say, decorate.

HEALTHY MEXICAN TORTILLA PIZZA
A nice fitness lunch to keep you going all day! It's tastier than you would think considering the ingredients. Chipotle lovers may prefer Recipe#124740 for the dip or the easiest way is to use prepared dip from the jar. I love Guiltless Gourmet's Spicy Black Bean Dip or Desert Pepper Trading Company's Spicy Black Bean Dip. Based on a recipe from Ellie Krieger's Healthy Appetite, this serves two as an entree or eight as an appetizer.

Tips:
- Use whole wheat tortillas: Whole wheat tortillas are a healthier option than white tortillas. They are higher in fiber, which can help you feel full and satisfied after eating.
- Go easy on the cheese: Cheese is a high-calorie ingredient, so it's important to use it sparingly. A little bit of cheese can add flavor and creaminess to your pizza, but too much can make it unhealthy.
- Choose lean protein: Chicken is a lean protein that is a good source of protein and nutrients. Other lean protein options include turkey, fish, and tofu.
- Load up on veggies: Vegetables are packed with nutrients and antioxidants. Adding a variety of vegetables to your pizza will make it more nutritious and delicious.
- Use healthy cooking methods: Baking is a healthier cooking method than frying. It uses less oil and produces a crispy crust.
Conclusion:
Tortilla chicken pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make a tortilla chicken pizza that is healthy and satisfying.
