Ingredients:
Instructions:

- Scatter the capers and sliced olives across the pizza.
- Add the drained canned tuna in small chunks across the pizza.
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the tortilla is crisp and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the pizza is baking, toss the fresh arugula with the vinegar in a small bowl.
- Once the pizza is done baking, remove it from the oven and immediately top it with the arugula.
- Slice the pizza into desired portions and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even cooking.
- If you prefer a crispier base, lightly toast the tortilla before adding the toppings.
- Drain the canned tuna thoroughly to avoid a soggy pizza.
- Cut the red pepper and onion into thin slices to ensure they cook evenly.
- Use a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to prevent the pizza from sticking.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese like mozzarella or feta for a unique flavor twist.
- If you want to add more vegetables, consider including sliced mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, or spinach.
