The Freshman Cook: Easy Tortilla Pizza / #OurFamilyTable

A long time ago, when my son was growing up, fixing and eating a quick meal every evening was a way of life. My husband and I worked, after school activities were a thing every night, or so it seemed, and finding the time to sit down and have a family dinner was rare. Even years later, it always seems like we are busy, running here, going there, never stopping. Sometimes the answer is a simple meal, that comes together quickly and becomes a favorite. This Easy Tortilla Pizza may be what you have been looking for!

1 raw Chicken Breast (8-10 ounces)
Minced Garlic
Black Pepper
Fresh Jalapeno Pepper
1 Corn on the Cob
Butter
Onion Slices
Mini Tortillas
Pizza Sauce
4 Cheese Mix
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Fresh Avocado
Salsa Slice the chicken into small, bite sized pieces. Sprinkle with minced garlic and pepper for a great flavor.
Chop the jalapeno pepper into small pieces.
Boil the corn for 10 minutes in water. Let cool a bit, then cut the kernels off the cob. I find the best way to do this without cutting yourself is to place a corn cob holder in the end of the corn and use it to steady the cob as you slice down, cutting the corn off.
Place a teaspoon of butter in a pan and pan grill the corn until it begins to turn slightly brown. Add some onion slices and continue grilling both the corn and the onions until tender. Pan grill the jalapeno pieces in a separate pan unless everyone eating the pizzas like jalapeno.
Start building your pizza. Place the mini tortillas in a large pan on medium heat. Top each pizza crust with some of the sauce and swirl it around the crust covering to the edge. Add the onions, corn, jalapeno, and chicken.
Top the pizzas with the cheese, choosing one or the other or both. You can never have enough cheese! If your cheese is not melting quick enough, place a lid on the pan for a few minutes to quicken the melting process.
Cut the pizza and enjoy! Serve with a side of salsa and some avocado slices!

I hope you find this Easy Tortilla Pizza to be the answer to your busy family dinners!
