MARGARITA PIZZA QUESADILLA – READY IN 20 MINUTES COOKING TIPS

Margarita Pizza Quesadilla – what a great combo. We love, love pizza and having all the tastes of pizza and a little bit less dough version is a win, win situation.

The best part of this Margarita Pizza Quesadilla dish is that it comes together in no time. You only need 4 ingredients and a pan.

I’ve already mentioned this a few times before, but in the football season we need to have football food at least once a week (typically Sunday). I’m trying to use all my tricks to sell healthier versions, and sometimes they work. This is not the healthiest version ever, since you have a significant amount of cheese, but at least it has less carbs and wheat. That’s a fair trade off, right?
