Dino-Tlayuda Pizza (Mexico)
This pizza is a fun way to make a delicious meal when you’re craving something different than tacos or enchiladas. You can make it as spicy or unspicy as you would like. Either way, it’s awesome and it is on weekly repeat in my house. It is baked on a baking tray, so no need for a pizza peel or stone.

Option:
Keep the tortillas open on the baking sheet pan. Layer all the ingredients, except the avocado, thinly, leaving about a ½ inch from the edge of the tortilla. Broil tortillas(s) for about 3 - 5 minutes, until the edges are crispy. When the tortillas are out of the oven, place the avocado on top, and sprinkle lime juice to taste. Enjoy!
