Yergins Easy Vegetarian Mexican Pizza Recipes

MEXICAN PIZZA RECIPE

Steps:

• First, prepare the dough using my Homemade Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Recipe (click for the recipe) or use a store-bought pizza crust. Check the recipe notes below for the tortilla version.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius) and line a large baking sheet with greased parchment paper.
• Transfer the Refried Beans to a bowl and add a splash of water to make the mixture spreadable. Add all spices (cumin, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper).
• Chop/dice/slice the onion, pepper, and jalapeño.
• Transfer the pizza crust onto the lined baking sheet and add a thick layer of refried beans.
• Put the veggies, jalapeño, and corn on top.
• Finally, add a generous layer of vegan cheese (I added my Vegan Cheese Sauce).
• Sprinkle with salt and bake the pizza in the oven until crispy, about 20 minutes. Enjoy!

VEGETARIAN MEXICAN PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Heat 1/2 can of refried beans in a small sauce pot over medium/low heat, until soft and stirrable. Add the salsa and reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally to keep the black beans from drying out.
• Place the pizza round on a baking pan. Spread the black bean sauce over the crust, leaving a finger-hold's width along the edges (an offset spatula or sandwich spreader works really well here).
• Sprinkle the vegetables over the sauce evenly, followed by the cheese.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes (or according to the instructions of your pizza crust - the toppings will be okay, whatever the length).
• Top with the cilantro, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat a medium sized frying pan on low until warm. Spray with cooking spray until coated nicely.
• Place tortilla in pan, and sprinkle with cheese until covered. Add more or less depending on how much you like cheese.
• Once cheese becomes soft, sprinkle with chopped cilantro (Again, add to how much you'd like, I like a lot).
• Once cheese is melted nicely and tortilla has become crispy (should take about 3 to 4 minutes) remove from heat.
