How to Make Easy Mini Halloween Pizzas

Ingredients:

  • 28 ounce can whole tomatoes, drained
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 10-inch flour tortillas
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 slices Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 slice Cheddar cheese
  • 4 large black olives
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Step 1: Make the Pizza Sauce
In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and let it sizzle until fragrant—about 1 minute. Pour in your drained tomatoes and break them up with a spoon. Add the white wine vinegar, dried oregano, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer gently for about 10 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the Tortillas
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush both sides of the tortillas with 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Place them on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven for about 5 minutes.

Step 3: Assemble the Pizzas
Spread a generous spoonful of pizza sauce on each tortilla. Lay 1 slice of mozzarella cheese on top, followed by pieces of Cheddar. Use black olives to create spooky faces.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Return the assembled pizzas to the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 5: Enjoy Your Spooky Treats
Once done, let them cool slightly, slice into wedges, and serve warm.
