Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Pizza Quesadilla

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes.
Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over one half of each tortilla, leaving a border around the edges.
On the sauced half, sprinkle shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, pepperoni slices, and a dash of Italian seasoning evenly.
Fold the un-sauced half of each tortilla over the filled half and press gently to secure.
Melt butter in the skillet, then add quesadillas, cooking each side for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from skillet, let cool for a minute, slice into wedges, and serve warm with extra pizza sauce.
