Black Bean Pepper Jack Pizza


You must think we eat pizza all the time.  And wouldn't that be great if we did?  It's been a little bit since we got groceries and that means we're low on produce.  Which means what in the world to have for dinner?  The obvious answer: pizza.  We didn't have much cheese (but when has that ever stopped me from making pizza?) so here is the improvised pizza based on what we had in the fridge.  And it was delicious.  I would have this every day.

Ok, so the avocado isn't the prettiest in this picture, but I promise you it was delicious.


Top a pizza crust with:

Tomato sauce (we used some leftover pasta sauce)
Cheddar cheese, grated (barely any, we used up our last little sliver on this)
Pepper Jack cheese, grated
Spiced black beans (These were black beans I had in the fridge that were mixed with chili powder, cumin, coriander, and a bit of lemon juice.  See exact ratios here)
Diced bell pepper

Bake at 375 for 12-15 min

Garnish with diced avocado

Enjoy!




Our little Bub-o is still eating away.  He loves food.  Wonder where he gets that from?  His latest favorite is mashed bananas.  How, you may ask, do you make mashed bananas?  Well, take a banana (or half of a banana) and mash it with a fork.  Why do people buy mashed bananas from Gerber?  We all own forks.
