GLUTEN FREE PEPPERONI PIZZA QUESADILLA
In my quest for gluten-free, yeast-free pizza, I'm always trying different things to get that pizza taste that I crave but can't have. One day a few months ago I was really craving pizza while I was at the grocery store, so I bought some pizza sauce, turkey pepperoni and mozarella cheese and this is what I came up with. Not quite the same thing as the pizza I remember, but a pretty close second and it's ready in a pinch! Note: I've also made this with Italian turkey sausage or just plain cheese depending on my mood.

Steps:
- These are made just like any other quesadilla or grilled cheese sandwich.
- Spray the bottom of a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and preheat.
- When the pan is fairly hot place 1 Flour Tortilla in the pan.
- Fairly quickly (because you want to get everything on before the bottom starts to brown) spread on a few tablespoons of sauce.
- Then add a layer of Pepperoni (and anything else you like).
- Then top with shredded cheese.
- Top it off with the 2nd Flour Tortilla.
- Just like any other quesadilla or grilled cheese let it brown then flip it over. If all of the cooking spray was absorbed you can spray on a little more, but you usually don't need to.
- After both sides are browned and the insides are hot and melted take the "pizzas" out to cool.
- Once cooled slice in 1/4 like a pizza and wrap snugly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
- Tips and Ideas.
- My son is not super picky so I made these in batches and freeze and then take them out the morning of school and pop into his lunchbox. It is usually thawed and yummy by lunch time. If you freeze them you need to let the cool completely first the wrap them separately in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil to prevent ice crystals from forming.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your pizza quesadilla will taste. Use ripe tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil for the best flavor.
- Don't overload the quesadilla: Too many toppings will make the quesadilla difficult to fold and cook evenly. Stick to a few simple toppings that you enjoy.
- Cook the quesadilla over medium heat: This will help to prevent the tortilla from burning and will allow the cheese to melt evenly.
- Serve the quesadilla immediately: Once the quesadilla is cooked, serve it immediately so that it is hot and crispy.
