Tortilla Crab Pizza image

A throw together pizza while starving! :) Serve with a green salad and it is plenty for two-three people -- or serve as a quick appetizer for a few people! NOTE: To prevent a soggy crust, immediately slide baked pizza onto a wire rack and cool for several minutes before slicing/serving!

Time 25m

Yield 1 10-inch pizza, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 flour tortilla (one 10-inch tortilla)
3 tablespoons neufchatel low-fat cream cheese
8 ounces imitation crabmeat (as chunky as you like!)
3 -4 tablespoons onions (chopped)
garlic powder (just a sprinkling over the entire surface)
salt (to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
cayenne pepper (to taste)
4 ounces swiss cheese (minced or shredded)
1/2 cup extra-sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
6 -8 fresh basil leaves (snipped)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425F for Pyrex, or 450F for a metal pizza pan.
  • Spread olive oil on pizza pan (I use Pyrex!) to prevent the tortilla from sticking to the pan.
  • Place flour tortilla onto pizza pan and spread on cream cheese.
  • Top with imitation crab meat and onion.
  • Lightly sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne.
  • Top with swiss and cheddar cheeses.
  • Top cheeses with the snipped basil.
  • Bake at 425F (Pyrex) or at 450F (metal) for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and immediately slide pizza onto a wire rack so the crust doesn't sweat!
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes, slide the pizza back onto the pizza pan and cut into 8 pieces, with a pizza cutter.
  • Three-four pieces with a green salad is plenty for two-three persons, or as an appetizer for a few folks!
  • NOTE: Use whatever cheese mixture you like ~ my photo with the blue background is made with swiss and mozzarella, with the basil underneath where it can't be seen!
