Vegetarian Mini Pizzas

Day 10

Mini pizzas seemed like the fastest and easiest option tonight because we worked late, it's the day before payday and we had all that pizza stuff left:

• 1/2 bottle pasta sauce
• 3/4 block of mozzarella
• 1/2 yellow pepper
• 8 or 9 black olives

Tortilla Pizza Crust

We also have all kinds of tortillas left over, so I thought we'd use those for the crust. Not the best, but not the worst. The worst being a crust of white Ben's bread or something equally awful.

For the most part they were okay, but tortillas make for soggy pizza crust, which is the opposite of what I was expecting. I don't know why, but I thought they were going to cook cracker-hard. Maybe a longer cooking time would have been the answer, who knows? These were in for about 20 minutes. I even tried them on the lowest rack but they didn't crisp up much. We'll go back to English muffins next time.

Toppings

I bought more mushrooms for these because we love them. So the toppings were:

• mushrooms
• yellow pepper
• red onion
• black pepper
• minced garlic
• crushed chili peppers

Mine also had tomato slices (not shown).

Reviews/Comments

Despite the limp crust, they were pretty good. Like, maybe a 6.5/10, as far as enjoyment goes. Laura gives it a 5 because for her, a pizza is all about the crust. She says it was the sauce that made the "crust" soggy. She's probably right.

Make it Vegan

Use a cheese substitute or opt for no cheese at all.
