Provolone cheese holds pairs of corn tortillas together for quesadilla-style pizza bases. If you can’t find tomatillos, use thinly sliced Roma or cocktail tomatoes.
Ingredients
- 4 tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and sliced
- 1/2 tsp. olive oil
- 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
- 16 5-inch corn tortillas
- 1/2 cup prepared salsa
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Toss together tomatillos, oil, and oregano in medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Set aside.
3. Sandwich 1 slice provolone between 2 tortillas, and set on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and cheese slices. Top each tortilla “crust” with 1 Tbs. salsa. Drain or shake excess liquid from tomatillo slices, and arrange slices on top of pizzas. Sprinkle with Jack cheese.
4. Bake 6 to 8 minutes, or until tomatillos are soft and cheeses are melted. Cool 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
