Tasty Tortilla Pizzas

One of the reasons that Weight Watchers is really working for me is that I'm doing it with my best friend. So she's right there with me when temptation strikes, and we've been spending our Saturday nights experimenting with Weight Watchers recipes, rather than our old habit of drinking our body weight in red wine and eating lots of unhealthy nibbles.

The other week we decided to have a tortilla pizza party, which is nowhere near as lame as it sounds even though it was totally just us having the party and no one else. This is such a good way to have a really tasty dinner - WITH CHEESE - but it's low point!


We made two pizzas and had half of each, and ended up using 11PP each. You could use whatever you wanted as toppings, but here's what we did:

Olive & Pepper Pizza

1 Weight Watchers Tortilla - 3PP

1/2 Pot Tesco Fresh Salsa - 0PP

10 x Green Olives, in Brine - 1PP

50g Low Fat Cheese - 4PP

1/2 Dry Roasted Red Pepper - 0PP

=8PP

1 - Place the tortilla onto an oven proof tin, either non-stick or foil covered. The tortillas can stick in the middle so I highly recommend using foil.
2 - Cover the tortilla in salsa as your tomatoey pizza base.
3 - Add your toppings - we'd pre-roasted the peppers, so added them, some sliced olives and then sprinkle cheese over the top.
4 - Cook under the grill for about 10 minutes, or until browning at the sides. Check constantly to ensure it doesn't burn and then eat immediately!

Feta, Caramelised Onion & Bacon Pizza

1 Weight Watchers Tortilla - 3PP

2 tbsp caramelised onion chutney - 2PP

3 bacon medallions - 2PP

50g Feta cheese - 4PP

1/2 Dry Roasted Red Pepper - 0PP

25g Low Fat Cheese - 2PP

=13PP

1 - Place the tortilla on an oven proof tin as before
2 - Cover the tortilla in caramelised onion (this is your base instead of tomato sauce)
3 - Add toppings - we'd pre-roasted the peppers and pre-fried the bacon so just popped it all off and sprinkled the cheese over the top. Eat immediately, again!
4 - Cook under the grill for about 10 minutes, or until browning at the sides. Check constantly to ensure it doesn't burn and then eat immediately!

To reduce points - use less cheese, use more free foods as toppings

As we had half of each pizza apiece, it worked out at 11PP each. Served along with 0PP butternut squash wedges, it was SUCH a tasty dinner. Also, so cheesy! Yum. I want to make a Hawaiian next...
