Notes
If you want to make a few of these at a time, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and build your pizza quesadillas on there. Then pop into the oven at 350 degrees for about 5 minutes, then flip over and bake another couple of minutes.
These can also be made in the air fryer. Set the temperature to 400 degrees and cook for 5 minutes. Be sure your really press the quesadilla together so that the ingredients help the two outer tortillas stick together, to prevent the tortillas from flying around while they cook.
