I highlight here the core that makes the soul of the dish and suggest some possible substitutions.
Core: Two tortillas and some cheese. Marinara if you want the keep the “pizza” vibe.
Substitutions: Draw inspiration from your favourite pizza and change the type of cheese, toppings or even the sauce (pesto, bechamel, curry, ajvar, etc.).
