The great thing about pizza toppings is you can add them to any kind of base. You don’t always need to use pizza dough. Take this tortizza recipe, a tortilla wrap-based pizza alternative that’s ready in just 15 minutes. Bake the tortillas in the oven with a lathering of tomato puree and stringy mozzarella cheese and sprinkle over chorizo for a smokey flavour. Once golden and bubbly, add the Mexican toppings for a spicy and tangy kick and serve with salsa, coriander and spring onion.

a) Bake the tortizzas in the oven until golden and the mozzarella is bubbly, 7-8 mins.
b) Meanwhile, drain and rinse the sweetcorn.
c) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
d) Once the pan is hot, add the sweetcorn and cook until nicely charred, 5-6 mins. Stir only twice during this time - you want the sweetcorn to pick up some nice colour.
a) Meanwhile, zest, then halve the lime.
b) Trim and thinly slice the spring onion. Thinly slice the green chilli. TIP: Halve lengthways and remove the seeds first if you don't like things too hot.
c) Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
a) Slice lengthways into the avocado. Once you reach the stone, turn the avocado around to cut it in half.
b) Twist each half and pull it apart.
c) Remove the stone then scoop out the insides onto your chopping board.
d) Chop into 1cm chunks.
a) Mix the charred sweetcorn, avocado, lime zest and half the spring onion together in a large bowl.
b) Add in juice of your lime and the olive oil (see ingredients for amount).
c) Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
d) Keep to one side.
a) When the tortizzas are ready, pop them onto your plates.
b) Serve the salsa on top and finish with a sprinkle of coriander, the remaining spring onion and as much chilli as you like. TIP: Tortizzas are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in!
Enjoy!
