Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas 10-inch
  • 1 cup pizza sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup mini pepperoni slices
  • ½ cup diced green bell pepper
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter for cooking

Instructions

  • Lay two tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread about ¼ cup of pizza sauce evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
  • Sprinkle ½ cup of mozzarella over the sauce on each tortilla, then layer on your pepperoni and bell pepper. Dust with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
  • Top each loaded tortilla with a second tortilla and press down gently.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush with a little olive oil or butter.
  • Place one quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
  • Carefully flip using a wide spatula and cook another 3–4 minutes on the second side.
  • Remove from the pan, let it rest for 1 minute, then slice into wedges. Repeat with the second quesadilla.
  • Serve with warm pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
