Southwestern Pizza

[orangeclouds115]

I made a great pizza! It's Southwestern style. It tastes great sans cheese so vegans can eat it. I haven't tried any fake cheese products but if you have a favorite, you can use it in this. Anyway, it's healthier w/o cheese.

Vegan Southwestern Black Bean Pizza

Prep time: 15 min; Total time: 30 min

Ingredients

• 1 pizza crust (I make my own pizza crust)
  
• 1/2 c. salsa
  
• 1/4 c. black beans, drained and rinsed
  
• 1/4 c. organic corn
  
• 1/4 c. jalepenos or other peppers (optional)

Any pizza tastes best if it is made with a pizza stone. If you have one, place it on the bottom of your oven (or on the bottom rack if the bottom has coils) and heat it to 450 F for 15 minutes. During this time, assemble your pizza.

Begin with your crust. I make my own crust so at this stage it is still raw dough - you may need to adjust your recipe accordingly if you use a ready-made crust (the package should have instructions).

Instead of pizza sauce, use salsa. Spread a thick layer of salsa on the pizza crust.

Once the pizza crust is coated thickly with salsa, add the corn, black beans, and jalepenos.

Bake on the pizza stone for 12-15 minutes at 450 F.
