Calories: 165kcal
Ingredients
- 2 medium tortilla wraps
- 4 tomatoes (on the vine)
- 100 g fresh mozzarella ball or shredded mozzarella (3.5 oz)
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ garlic clove
- pinch of dried oregano
- pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- sea salt and pepper (to taste)
To serve:
- fresh basil
- balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 225°C (437°F). Peel and mince the garlic and slice the tomatoes.
- Place the tortillas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle on the minced garlic.
- Arrange the mozzarella slices evenly over each tortilla and add the sliced tomatoes on top of it.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the tortillas are crisp and the cheese is melted.
- Once the tortilla wrap pizzas are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two. Sprinkle fresh basil leaves over the tomatoes, drizzle with balsamic glaze, and serve.
Notes
- Use parchment paper – When baking the assembled wrap pizza in the oven, place it on parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Don't overload with toppings – Be mindful not to overstuff the tortilla. Too many ingredients can make it challenging to fold and handle, leading to potential spills.
- Make it vegan – Use a plant-based mozzarella alternative to make it a vegan Caprese tortilla pizza.
