    Looks yummy, but does the tortilla get crispy?? I've heard of this idea before but just imagine it being all floppy for some reason!

    This looks super good! I sometimes use that brand's flatbread... but this looks much larger!

    Yum! I totally do this! Actually made one last night! :) Mine is a little different:

    I use a whole wheat pita (approx 120 cal; 4? fibre - Balady brand)
    I use salsa as my sauce. I add a huge bed of spinach there - it wilts down a ton, so get all the nutritional bang - but it is disguised with other goodness.
    then add a portion of your cheese.
    Then I usually will add mushrooms, peppers, tomatoes, artichokes, whatever is in the fridge, low call and fits my fancy. Top it with the rest of your cheese. I usually do not use more than 2 oz - I like tex mex mix. I bake it, convection, at 425, til it looks crispy goodness.

    Add whatever you like. Sometimes I will use 1/2 - 1 oz of reg cheese, and then 1/2 - 1 oz feta, with some olive, onion, etc.

    ***if you use 1oz reg cheese total is approx: 280 - ***if you use 2oz of reg cheese total is approx: 390

    Good luck and enjoy!

    I do this all the time. I brush my tortilla with a little evoo and then put in a pan to cook for a few minutes before topping. I just let them brown a little. They get super cripsy and yummy!!!

    looks good! I don't like tortillas much though.

    I did see some stuff on pinterest about a cauliflower pizza crust. Of course, I don't know the calories involved, but folks that made it seem to like it.

    You can also add turkey, and/or turkey bacon, and/or chicken and/or pineapple to kick it up a bit

    Looks great. I make a similar pizza with "flat out" tortillas but I may try it with those. I like turkey based pepperoni on mine they are only like 70 cal for 16 pepperonies and I usually use a half serving.
