Ingredients

Scale
  • 812 large flour tortillas (or corn tortillas)
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 to 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (low-moisture, part-skim)
  • 12 tablespoons olive oil (or cooking spray)
  • Dried oregano (to taste)
  • Garlic powder (to taste)
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • Optional toppings: micro-diced bell peppers, extremely thinly sliced mushrooms, tiny bits of cooked, crumbled beef sausage or turkey pepperoni

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Lay your tortillas flat and cut each into 8-12 chip shapes, aiming for uniform pieces about 2-3 inches in size.
  3. Arrange the tortilla pieces in a single layer on the baking sheets and lightly brush or spray the top side with olive oil.
  4. Spread a very thin layer of pizza sauce over each oiled tortilla piece, then sprinkle a small amount of shredded mozzarella evenly on top.
  5. Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper over the cheesy chips. Add any optional toppings sparingly.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 8-12 minutes until golden brown and crispy, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.

Keywords: Avoid overcrowding the baking sheets to ensure crispiness. Use thin layers of oil, sauce, and cheese for the best texture. Experiment with different tortilla types for varied flavors.
