Servings: 4 Servings
Cost: $4.00
Equipment
- Half Sheet Pan
Ingredients
- 4 rounds Pita or Naan (or 1 pre-cooked pizza dough)
- 1 can Refried Beans
- 5 ounces Shredded Cheese, Mexican Blend
Optional Toppings:
- Shredded Lettuce
- Salsa
- Guacamole / Sliced Avocados
- Black Olives
- Jalapenos
- Tomatoes
- Green Onions
- Sour Cream
Instructions
- Turn on the oven's broiler (I like to use the lowest setting so that things don't burn if I get distracted for a moment).
- While the oven heats, prep and set out any toppings you'd like for the pizzas.
- Place pita or naan on a sheet pan. Slice sheet pan under the broiler and toast bread on both sides until crisp. (This should just take a minute or two on each side, but will help the bread from turning too soggy when you add toppings.)
- Spread beans on bread and top with cheese. Return to the broiler and broil until cheese is melted.
- Pile on any of the toppings you'd like and slice into wedges. Serve warm with some extra salsa or sour cream at the table.
