Ingredients
  

For the Chickpeas:
  • 1 can chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon minced onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes plus more for serving
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Kosher salt and pepper to taste
For the Tortilla Pizzas:
  • 2 burrito size flour tortillas
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese or an Italian blend/provolone/etc.
  • finely grated parmesan cheese for sprinkling
  • chopped fresh basil or parsley for sprinkling

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Spatula
  • Oven mitts

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure crispy tortillas and melted cheese.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chickpeas, olive oil, smoked paprika, minced onion, garlic powder, crushed red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss until well coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  4. While the chickpeas roast, place tortillas on a baking sheet. Spread ½ cup of marinara sauce on each, then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
  5. Remove roasted chickpeas from the oven and sprinkle over the sauced tortillas. Add more crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
  6. Bake the assembled pizzas for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the tortillas are crisp.
  7. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and fresh herbs before slicing and serving immediately.

Notes

  • For gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.
  • Make it vegan by omitting cheese or using a dairy-free alternative.
