  2. Steam the broccoli until just soft enough to blend, about 7 minutes.

  5. Spray sheet pans generously with oil and top with tortillas (6 to a pan).
  6. Top each tortilla with heaping 1 oz scoop of pesto, 1/2 cup cheese and 3 slices of plum tomatoes (or 2 of regular tomatoes).
  7. Cover each tortilla with a second tortilla and spray generously.
  8. Bake until lightly brown and crisp. Convection oven: 375° about 6-10 minutes Conventional oven: 400° about 8-12 minutes
