Chipotle night meets Pizza night!


For dinner tonight, I was in the mood for Chipotle, but didn't want to go out. I took all my favorite elements of Chipotle, and made it into a pizza. It was interesting, but reall good!


TexMex Pizza

1 pizza crust (TJ's herbed)
1/2 c. cilantro pesto, recipe below
1/2 c. salsa, any kind
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 c. black beans
1 c. shredded monterey jack cheese
2 tomatoes, diced
1/4 c. frozen corn
1/4 c. chopped scallions
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. corriander

Pesto:
1 c. cilantro leaves
1/2 c. parsley
2 tbsp. EVOO
1 clove garlic
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 400. Roll out dough, top with pesto, dollop with salsa, top with peppers, onion, beans, and cheese. Bake for 15 minutes, until crispy and brown.
Mix corn, tomatoes, salt, cumin, corriander, and scallions.
Top pizza with tomato/corn salsa.
