Pepperoni Pizza Quesadilla Recipe

If you know me, then you know that I am a huge fan of a quick and easy meal! I am on the go constantly with all of my kid’s activities and errands and work and life… Aren’t we all?? So whenever I can make a meal that tastes delicious and takes less than 30 minutes, you can count me IN! These pizza quesadillas are cheesy and full of flavor, and sometimes my kids actually prefer these to regular pizza!

The great thing about these quesadillas is the fact that you can easily change up the ingredients to work for you! My kids love making their own and adding in their favorite ingredients. We’ve tried bacon, sausage, ham, veggies, and every pizza topping that you can think of, and they all taste so delicious! This meal makes a great on-the-go meal for busy weeknights, especially once school has started!

Ingredients You Need to Make Pizza Quesadillas

Like I said before, you can use whatever ingredients that you have on hand for toppings on this pizza. Although I must say, this combo I have here is just about perfect! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

• Tortillas: I like to use flour tortillas because they are the most flexible and won’t break. But corn tortillas are a great option for those who are looking to make this recipe gluten-free!
• Pizza Sauce: You can buy a jar of this at the store, or you can easily make it at home using this recipe of mine!
• Mozzarella Cheese: I like to use freshly shredded mozzarella cheese from a block but to save time, you can use pre-shredded cheese from the store!
• Pepperoni Slices: You can only use pepperoni if you want to keep this recipe classic!
• Olives: To save time, I like to buy a can of pre-sliced olives. It makes this recipe even easier.
• Additional Toppings: Get creative and make this recipe perfect for you! Try adding in some peppers, mushrooms, or sausage.

How to Make Pizza Quesadillas

You are going to love this new go-to meal! It’s perfect for lunch or dinner and is so versatile that no one will have any complaints! I always keep the ingredients on hand so that my kids can make these for themselves whenever they want something quick and delicious to eat.

1. Spread Sauce: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on half of a large tortilla.
2. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza sauce.
3. Layer on Toppings: Layer on the sliced pepperoni and sprinkle with Italian seasoning for extra flavor! Add any other pizza toppings you desire at this time.
4. Cook: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Fold the tortilla over and cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.
5. Cut: Remove the cooked quesadilla from the pan and use a pizza cutter to slice it into triangles and enjoy! Serve with additional marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
