Some of the best cheeses to use for making tortilla pizza are those with low moisture and won’t burn easily at high temperatures. These include Mozzarella, Provolone, Asagio, Fontina, Parmesan, Romano, Goat’s cheese, Feta, and Gorgonzola. You don’t have to fill the tortilla with cheese, as it might get too heavy. Sprinkle roughly shaved cheese on the surface and this will melt and spread out for a mouthwatering pizza treat. Since you won’t be using tomato sauce or marinara in this recipe, make sure you use ripe and sweet cherry tomatoes that will burst wonderfully in the palate.
