Tuna tortilla pizza
Ingredients
- 1 large or 2 smaller cans of tuna in water, drained and flaked
- 400g can chopped tomatoes with herbs
- Pinch of sugar
- 4 large wholewheat tortillas
- ½ red onion, finely sliced
- 1 pepper, deseeded and sliced into thin strips (use 2 different coloured halves if you prefer)
- 125g shredded mozzarella cheese
- Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 220C/Fan 200/425F/Gas Mark 7. Cover two baking trays with baking paper.
- For the sauce, put the chopped tomatoes into a non-stick saucepan with a pinch of sugar and some black pepper.
- Cook on a medium high heat until the liquid volume has reduced and has created a thickened sauce that doesn’t look watery.
- Place the tortillas on the prepared baking trays. Spread a generous spoonful of the sauce on to each base, spreading it around to cover the base.
- Add the tuna, onion and pepper, and scatter over the cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 6–8 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil sprigs if desired.
