Pepperoni Pizza Fold
About 15 minutes, estimated · 2 portions · Microwave

Original commissary-inspired pantry recipe
A pizza fold provides the tomato-cheese flavor of pizza without pretending that a soft tortilla is a baked crust. A short microwave warm-up softens the filling, while crackers inside supply a little missing crunch.
Place & evidence: Across the country. This is an original pantry recipe. The source supplies ingredient or technique context, rather than evidence that this exact dish is served in a prison. Inventory and place labels describe that context only. FCI Danbury Commissary List.
Make it
Equipment: Microwave-safe bowl or plate; clean spoon; measuring cup and spoons; a permitted microwave if using that option. Follow the product label for heating.
Ingredients
- 2 flour tortillas, 8 inch
- 1/4 cup ready-to-eat pasta sauce
- 2 tbsp cheese sauce
- 1 oz fully cooked shelf-stable pepperoni
- 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning
- 4 crackers, crushed
Method
- Divide pasta sauce and cheese sauce over one half of each tortilla, leaving a narrow clear rim.
- Add pepperoni and Italian seasoning, then fold each tortilla in half.
- Warm on a microwave-safe plate in 15-second bursts until pleasantly warm. The result is a soft fold rather than a crisp baked crust.
- Open carefully, add half the crushed crackers to each, refold and serve immediately.
The useful detail
Add crumbs after warming so they retain some texture.
When the store is different
Use ready-to-eat white beans instead of pepperoni.
Serving & handling
Prepare starches fresh and follow package cooking directions. Serve promptly; hydrated grains and mixed meals require proper handling. Read the pantry and food-handling guide for storage limits, package directions and allergen checks.
