Pizza Muffins


                                                
This recipe makes 12 pizza cups.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Ingredients:
-2 1/2 large white tortillas
-3/4 cup pizza sauce
-1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
-pam cooking spray
-whatever toppings you want in your pizza cups, about 1 cup of each topping if you want enough to fill each muffin cup

Directions:
1. Begin by greasing your muffin tin
2. Cut small circular pieces of the tortillas, I used an upside down coffee mug as my template. Each tortilla should give you 5 circle bases, so 2 1/2 makes 12.
3. Place each circle into each muffin cup and form a base
4. Add in a teaspoon of pizza sauce into each cup
5. Add your toppings, about a teaspoon of each into each cup
6. Top each cup with cheese
7. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, until cheese is melted and slightly browned on the top.


You can serve these cups alone or with any side that goes with a pizza. I LOVE serving these with a ceasar salad! For my pizza cup toppings I used chorizo/mushrooms for 6 cups and chorizo/olives for the other 6. You can use any toppings you want, just make sure whatever you use is in small pieces so your cups do not overflow. Also, I would suggest using 2-3 toppings max to prevent them from being overstuffed.
