Tortilla Pizza, Homemade pizza sauce

Today the kids wanted pizza. So, instead of ordering them one, which by the way, we in live so far out that we don't get delivery, or buying a frozen one that is packed with sodium and hidden additives and preservatives, I decided to make one homemade! I forgot to take a picture, I am still so new at this.... Here we go:

Tortilla Pizza

1 10 in soft tortilla
1/3 cup homemade pizza sauce (see below)
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 T grated Parmesan cheese

place to soft tortilla shell on a pizza pan and place in a 425 degree oven for 5 minutes

take out pan and flip tortilla. If you are using a pan that has small holes in the pan, your crust will be crispier on the bottom.

top this pizza with all the ingredients. You can also add or take ones away that you like. I made myself on and used less cheese and added fresh diced baby portebello mushrooms and fresh from the garden diced yellow tomato. Both pizzas were devoured. I hope you will use this one! Let me know if you do!


Sauce
1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes with juice
1 small can tomato sauce
1 t garlic powder or 1/2 t minced garlic
1 t Italian seasonings
1/2 t pepper

Add all ingredients to a sauce pan and cook about 20 minutes. Then take a potato smasher and smash the tomatoes until they are broken down but not completely smashed. If you want you pizza sauce thicker, use 1/2 small can of tomato paste instead of the tomato sauce.
