Mini street taco size tortillas, veggie meatballs, & your favorite veggie toppings make these tortilla pizzas incredibly easy to put together.
Lunch can be a pain.
For me, dinner and breakfast are easy; I’m prepared for them. But lunch just kind of sneaks up on you.
Maybe I shouldn’t admit this, but I usually snack through lunch.
This works just fine until the weekend, or an elongated school break. With the whole family home, I’m reminded that lunch is a meal most normal people don’t forget to eat, and aren’t too lazy to just snack through.
That’s where these Easy Tortilla Pizzas come in.
My daughter and husband both had a few weeks off for Christmas break. I foolishly hadn’t thought ahead about the lunch situation, so when lunchtime hit and everyone was hungry, I had to get creative.
Once again, mini street taco tortillas proved my saving grace.
We also had marinara and some traditional—and not so traditional—pizza toppings. So tortilla pizzas were born. They were such a hit, we’ve enjoyed them regularly for lunch and dinner ever since.
Use my recipe as a base: if you don’t have sweet mini peppers, olives, tomatoes, veggie meatballs, or curly fries/French fries, get creative with the ingredients you do have on hand. As long as you’ve got the mini street taco size tortillas, you really can’t go wrong. You could even do pesto instead of red sauce.
Make my Easy Tortilla Pizzas next time you find yourself in a lunch debacle situation. I’m sure they’ll become the go-to—and requested—lunch they are for my family.
The back of a spoon works great for spreading marinara or pizza sauce onto the tortilla, but if you want to make the job super easy, use an offset spatula. Here’s my favorite set on Amazon [aff. link]. I use the smallest spatula in the set for these tortilla pizzas.
And if you’re like me and enjoy adding a bit more flavor to your dishes with a finishing salt, try fleur de sel [aff. link]. Sprinkling these pizzas with a dash of fleur de sel after baking amplifies all the flavors. You’ll be amazed at the difference this seemingly small step makes with so many dishes.
Finally, these pizzas are vegetarian. Make them gluten-free by using corn tortillas, or make them vegan by using a vegan cheese. I prefer using slices of Miyoko’s Classic Fresh Italian Style Vegan Mozzarella Cheese.

French fries on pizza!? Now why have I not thought of this idea yet?? Genius! I agree with you about lunch. During the cold winter months, we often make a batch of soup on Sunday and that gets us through most of the week for lunches. But I’m thinking these tortilla pizzas need to make an appearance soon. I love the creative toppings here – nice and easy, but still tasty!!
Thanks David! Unique pizza toppings are the best. Love the soup idea, I need to do that!
