Pizza Quesadillas Recipe Variations
- Delicious extras to add to your pizza quesadillas: pepperoni, cooked Italian sausage, sliced chicken, chopped ham, olives, and sautéed vegetables such as peppers, onions, and mushrooms.
- Make healthy pizza quesadillas by using wholegrain tortillas, reduced-fat cheese, and plenty of fresh vegetables!
- Prepare vegetarian pizza quesadillas by omitting pepperoni, sausage, and other meats. Stuff plenty of sautéed veggies into the quesadillas so that they’re satisfying and flavorful, or keep it simple with just cheese.
- Make pepperoni pizza quesadillas (as shown here) using a few slices of pepperoni and a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese!
- This recipe yields one quesadilla, but you can easily double, triple, or quadruple the ingredients to feed a family.
- Use at least two different types of cheese for the best flavor. We love a combination of mozzarella and Parmesan.
- Try cooking with kids! This is an easy way to let your little ones help in the kitchen. Allow the children to assemble their own quesadillas by adding the toppings of their choice.
