I was immediately captivated by the idea of topping a quesadilla like a pizza when I first came across it a while ago! I mean you really cannot go wrong combining two great things like quesadillas and pizza! Ever since I made the taco quesadilla pizzas I have been wanting to try making pizza pizza quisadillas and I could not hold off on making them any longer! The basic idea is that you make a pizza quesadilla, stuffed with your favourite pizza ingredients including pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni and black olives, and then you top the quesadilla with more of the pizza toppings and quickly bake it to melt the cheese on top!
Tip: You want to make sure to toast the quesadilla well when you cook it so that the tortillas are nice and crispy so that they hold together even with the liquid from all of the pizza sauce.
Of course you do not have to top the pizza quesadillas with more pizza ingredients and the pizza quesadillas are certainly tasty enough to go without the extra toppings!
Serve the pizzadillas with extra pizza sauce for dipping!
Just look at all of that pizza goodness stuffed into that quesadilla!

Quesadillas looks spicy and delicious!
WOW why have I never thought of this? WHY?! Can't wait to try it
Made these today for four people. We each devoured an entire vegetarian-style Pizzadilla! I am a serious carnivore, but it was delicious with Italian Sausage style Tofurkey. Thanks, Kevin for a new go-to recipe for my collection. BTW, nice website and newsletter.
so many great ideas! i've tried many of your recipes and they've all been a success. thanks for this post, too. delicious!
Just made these for lunch. They were a hit with the kids and me! Fantastic. Toasting the shells is key to perfection 🙂 Thanks!
Wow! you have quite a collection of cool suggestions there! I'm satisfied just from looking at the pics… but, I'm surely going to try out quite a few in the next few days! Congratulations…
Hey, great recipe, certainly a lot of fun to eat, was just wondering if there is a trick on how to flip the quesadilla without loosing part of the filling inthe process. Thanks 🙂
I made these last night and they were delicious! I added some sausage, green peppers and onions to mine. This is a real keeper.
My family is going to love this pizza!
