Pizza Crisps


tortilla
tomato sauce
1/2 red onion
Daiya pepperjack cheese
salt & pepper
oregano flakes
Nate's Zesty Italian Meatless Meatballs
Earth Balance

1: Preheat oven to 400ºF
2: Spread a very thin layer of Earth Balance on the back of a tortilla.
3: On the other side, spread a very thin layer of tomato sauce on the tortilla, being careful not to add too much.  (I learned the hard way: too much sauce = soggy crisp!).  Add oregano flakes salt and pepper to sauce and mix around

 4: Add thinly sliced onions and any other vegetable toppings.  I like to use whatever is on hand.  Sometimes olives, roasted garlic, green and red peppers...whatever you like! 
5: Lightly sprinkle Daiya over crisp, but not too much, as this is supposed to be a light pizza.
6: Cook for 4 minutes (not any longer or it will burn!!).  Enjoy!

 (This is how crispy it gets after just 4 minutes)

Optional:
Nate's Zesty Italian Meatless Meatballs.

They weren't too "zesty" in my opinion, so I sauted them on the stovetop in tomato sauce, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper and oregano powder.  Then I baked them for five minutes before I sliced them up and added them to the raw crisps, which I baked for 4 minutes.
