italy meets mexico...

i am all about quick and easy cooking.  even more so, i'm all about quick and easy cooking that tastes good and doesn't send me into a carb coma...  unfortunately for my waistline, pizza happens to be my absolute most favorite food in the world, but it's also something i try not to eat too often {which proves problematic with hungry howie's always shoving their propaganda into my newspaper}.  nevertheless, i rescued myself from these weekly cravings with the help of my best friend, low-carb tortillas.

now, this recipe is much faster and simpler than the fan favorite cauliflower crust pizza, but it still gets the job done.  i started making these when i was short on time, and we probably eat them weekly in our house...

recipe necessities {yields: 4 slices}
2 Mission low-carb tortillas, soft taco size
shredded mozzarella cheese
salami, 5 slices
pepperoni, 5 slices
ranch dressing
jalapenos, diced
preferred spices {i used italian seasoning, garlic salt and oregano}

there really is no rhyme or reason with how to layer these, and you can add anything you want to the quesadilla itself {olives, pizza sauce, veggies, etc}. i would recommend "blotting" the meats before putting them in the quesadilla to help reduce the greasiness, because the tortillas will absorb a lot of it...

layer one: cheese, jalapenos, spices

layer two: salami, cheese

layer three: pepperoni, cheese

layer four: ranch, more seasoning

top it with another tortilla, then bake in the oven for 15-18 minutes at 350 degrees!  let it cool, then cut and serve!  seriously, it's so amazing...  and under 15 carbs for the whole thing!
