Flatbread Mexican Pizzas

Do you ever latch on to a recipe once you try it and make it everyother night or so for weeks on end? Well, while it hasn't been weeks yet, this recipe is quickly becoming a favorite. It's fast, easy, flavorful and filling and, as many of our recipies are, easily adaptable.

Enjoy!

Flatbread Mexican Pizzas

4 Flat Out flat breads
1 can black beans, rinsed
½ c cheese
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and chopped
1 bell pepper, diced
4 green onions, sliced
1 c tomatoes
Fresh cilantro, chopped
Garlic powder
Cumin
Salsa

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place flat breads on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 4 minutes (keep an eye on them, they go from crisp to burnt pretty quickly).

Meanwhile, season black beans with garlic powder and cumin to taste. Microwave for about a minute. Set aside until flat breads are done.

Combine bell pepper, green onion and tomatoes in a microwavable bowl. Microwave for about 1-2 minutes, until warm but still crisp.

When flat breads are done, top with ¼ of the beans, and 1/8 c cheese. Place back in the oven until the cheese is melted.

Top with ¼ of the warm veggies, ¼ of the avocado, cilantro and as much salsa as you’d like.

Serves 4.
