Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Roughly chop cilantro. Drain, then roughly chop roasted red peppers. Thinly slice green onions. Combine cream cheese, mayo, green onions and half the Monterey Jack cheese in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chorizo. Cook, breaking up chorizo into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
Meanwhile, arrange pitas on an unlined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets.)Bake in middle of oven until golden-brown, 2-3 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, bake one sheet at a time)
Spread cream cheese mixture over pitas. Sprinkle chorizo, roasted red peppers and remaining Monterey Jack cheese evenly over top. Bake in the middle of oven until cheese melts, 3-4 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, bake one sheet at a time.)
Cut pizzettes into quarters. Sprinkle with cilantro. Drizzle hot sauce over top, if desired.
