Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Place the tortillas on a baking sheet and broil for about 1 minute, until slightly crispy.
• Spread cream cheese over one tortilla and sprinkle with half of the shredded mozzarella.
• Add the cooked sausage over the cheese.
• Cover with the second tortilla, forming a sandwich.
• Spread the marinara sauce on the top tortilla.
• Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and add pepperoni slices on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
• Let it cool slightly, cut into 4 pieces, and serve.

Notes

• Serving Suggestions
  – Serve with a side of mixed greens dressed with olive oil and vinegar for a complete meal.
  – Consider a drizzle of chili oil for an extra kick of flavor.
• Notes
  – For a crispier crust, broil for an additional minute before adding toppings.
  – Use a preheated pizza stone for an even crisper bottom.
• Tips
  – To keep the tortillas from getting soggy, ensure the marinara sauce is spread evenly and not too thick.
  – For a melty cheese pull, let the pizza rest for 2 minutes before slicing.
• Variations/Modifications
  – Vegetarian Option: Skip the sausage and add more veggies like onions, peppers, and mushrooms.
  – Dairy-Free: Substitute vegan cheese (e.g., plant-based mozzarella cheese) products for mozzarella and cream cheese.
• Prep Ahead
  – The tortillas can be crisped and the sausage cooked a day ahead. Assemble and bake just before serving.
