This versatile food not only can make a great dinner, but a wonderful after school snack! They are so easy to make, even my 8-year can prepare one for herself when she gets home from school. No joke, my kids probably have pizzadillas at least twice a week. So simple, yet so delicious. My kids also love how they can choose what toppings go inside. It’s fun to get creative in the kitchen! </p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3WCkTC_0w51tsFK00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3WCkTC_0w51tsFK00" width="1200" height="800" ></figure><h2>Pizzadilla Ingredients</h2><p>These few easy ingredients are ones we always seem to have on hand:</p><ul><li>Flour tortillas – soft taco size makes the perfect shape.</li><li>Mozzarella – shredded, this cheese is perfectly salted and classic!</li><li>Pepperoni – a classic topping, but you can get creative with you whatever you’d like!</li><li>Pizza sauce – this is for dipping.</li><li>Butter – goes in your frying pan to cook the pizzadillas. </li></ul><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0O9nMf_0w51tsFK00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0O9nMf_0w51tsFK00" width="1200" height="800" ></figure><h2>How to Make Pizzadillas</h2><ul><li>Step 1: heat your pan or griddle, melt butter over the pan, spreading it over evenly.</li></ul><ul><li>Step 2: place one tortilla on the heated, buttered pan and sprinkle with ½ cup of cheese.</li></ul><ul><li>Step 3: add pepperoni (or other toppings) and another ½ cup of cheese.</li></ul><ul><li>Step 4: top with the second tortilla and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes while the bottom tortilla becomes golden brown. </li></ul><ul><li>Step 5: flip and cook another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.</li></ul><ul><li>Step 6: remove from heat.

These are some classic combinations:</p><p>All Meat – additional pepperoni, sausage, ham, (sometimes bacon!) </p><p>Veggie – mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, spinach</p><p>Supreme – pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers</p><p>Hawaiian – pineapple and ham</p><p>BBQ – bbq sauce, chicken, bacon, corn, red onion</p><h2>Single Serving </h2><p>If you just want to make a single serving, use one tortilla and fold it over. When I’m cooking these, I’m usually making them for multiple kids, so this method is easiest. </p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=4FvePu_0w51tsFK00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=4FvePu_0w51tsFK00" width="1200" height="800" ></figure><h2>Tips and Suggestions</h2><p>Making multiple: if you are making more than one at a time, using a flat-top griddle is the way to go! It has more surface area for you to work with, making it a lot easier and faster to make way more Pizzadillas!</p><p>In a rush: if you are in a rush, don’t turn the heat up on your pan to rush the cooking process! You’ll burn the butter and the tortilla, blech. It won’t take much longer to keep the heat a little lower at a medium heat. </p><p>Dips: if you don’t have pizza sauce, pasta sauce also works fine. Another great dip is ranch, you can never go wrong with ranch!</p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=4HaZib_0w51tsFK00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=4HaZib_0w51tsFK00" width="1200" height="800" ></figure><h2>More Easy Kid-Friendly Recipes</h2><p>Kid-friendly recipes are great!
