Making Pizza With Tortilla

Hi, someone once posted about making individual pizzas out of soft corn tortilla and I can't remember exactly how they said they did it. I believe they brushed it with olive oil and then cooked it in the broiler. Does anyone else remember?

I do remember and I believe that was how they said they did it.

When I make tortilla pizza, I like a thicker "crust" so I melt mozzarella between 2 tortillas and then spread the top one with pizza sauce, more mozzarella and pepperoni. The cheese sticking the two tortillas together makes it feel more like pizza and less like a taco that I should fold. Although I guess it's more like a pizza quesadilla. :-)

I generally prefer yellow corn tortillas but for pizza, white corn is better. It doesn't taste as "corny" but white corn tortillas are not as strong as yellow.

I've posted a similar suggestion before, but I don't use a Corn tortilla, though you could I suppose. I use Food For Life Brand Brown Rice Tortillas, which I get at Whole Foods. Since WF is kind of a drive for me, I get lot's when ever I'm there. The brown rice tortillas toast nicely, and don't taste much like a taco when toasted.

I actually recently got a cool little olive oil sprayer. You put OO in it, and pump it up. SPrays out like Pam, but it's just olive oil. I use that to give both sides a light coating, then toast in the broiler, then top with fun stuff, and bake.

It makes a very thin crust pizza, but it tastes great to me, is cheap and easy.

I've always used tostada shells (hard corn tortilla). You put a little sauce and then goodies on them, then back for about 10 minutes at 350. If you pull them out at the right time, the tostada shell will still be firm, but won't crack into pieces when you bite. Kids love them. Bob

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, the yeast could have been cultured on a wheat substrate. But another batch may use a yeast extract cultured on something else that did not contain gluten. These food companies will switch suppliers according to what is the cheapest source at any given time. I take it you are a pretty sensitive celiac.

      The regular cheddar and sour cream Ruffles have yeast extract, which is probably the source of gluten.  Pinpointing the exact cause of gluten exposure is always tricky, but I've come to learn my initial reaction to gluten compared to the ongoing symptoms that will occur days, weeks, and sometimes months later.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      Yes, that's probably best. (Honestly, that is an extraordinarily high number, I've never seen anything like that. I repeated my blood tests (not taken while pregnant BTW); before giving up cake, pizza, and beer, I wanted to know for sure! You don't wanna mess around with anything while pregnant. Congratulations and best of luck!

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Here are the ingredients listed for the regular sour cream and cheddar Ruffles: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Corn, Soybean, and/or Sunflower Oil), Maltodextrin (Made from Corn), Salt, Whey, Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Onion Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Buttermilk, Sour Cream (Cultured Cream, Skim Milk), Lactose, Butter (Cream, Salt), Sodium Caseinate, Yeast Extract, Citric Acid, Skim Milk, Blue Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Lactic Acid, Garlic Powder, Artificial Color (Yellow 6, Yellow 5), Whey Protein Isolate, and Milk Protein Concentrate. CONTAINS MILK INGREDIENTS. Here are the ingredients listed for the baked ones: INGREDIENTS: DRIED POTATOES, CORN STARCH, CORN OIL, SUGAR, MALTODEXTRIN (MADE FROM CORN), SALT, SOY LECITHIN, DEXTROSE, WHEY, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ONION POWDER, CHEDDAR CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, BLUE CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), CITRIC ACID, ARTIFICIAL COLOR (YELLOW 6 LAKE, YELLOW 5 LAKE, YELLOW 5, YELLOW 6), SKIM MILK, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, GARLIC POWDER, LACTIC ACID, DISODIUM INOSINATE, AND DISODIUM GUANYLATE. CONTAINS MILK AND SOY INGREDIENTS   They look a lot the same except for the baked product contains soy. What do you suppose is the hidden source of gluten in the regular Ruffles that is not found in the baked ones? Could you be mistaken in attributing your reaction to the Ruffles? Could it have been from gluten in something else you ate around the same time or even a non-gluten tummy event?

      @plumbago on my blood tests I got 4500 and normal should be between 25-30 but they wanted me to continue eating gluten until a endoscopy was done and also biopsies taken. I’ve took it upon myself to cut gluten out today based on the research I’ve done about it during pregnancy
