These adorable individual pizza bites take just minutes to prepare thanks to easy whole wheat tortillas and store-bought reduced-fat pesto. They require only 6 ingredients (including cooking spray), yet are beautiful and flavorful enough to impress anyone you may be inviting over for a light snack or appetizer. All you have to do is pile the tortillas with pesto, part-skim ricotta cheese, and shredded mozzarella. Then they only take 5–7 minutes in the oven to melt the cheese and crisp up. All that's left to do is top off the pizzas with some fresh tomatoes to add even more color and tie the rest of the ingredients together.
