Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 cup ricotta
1/2 cup sour cream
4 ounces cream cheese
One 14-ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3/4 cup sliced black olives
1 loaf crusty bread or baguette, thinly sliced, for serving

Steps:

LOADED MEXICAN PIZZA



Loaded Mexican Pizza image

Here is a lower-calorie version of one of my favorite pizzas, contributed to Taste of Home by Mary Barker.

Provided by Pinay0618

Categories     Mexican

Time 35m

Yield 6 slices

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 medium red onion, chopped
1 small yellow sweet pepper, chopped
3 teaspoons chili powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 prebaked thin italian bread pizza crust (10 ounces)
2 cups chopped fresh spinach
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
hot pepper sauce
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded monterey jack pepper cheese

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mash black beans; stir in the onion, yellow pepper, chili powder and cumin. In another bowl, combine the tomatoes, jalapeno and garlic.
  • Place the crust on an ungreased 12-in. pizza pan; spread with bean mixture. Top with tomato mixture and spinach. Sprinkle with cilantro, hot pepper sauce and cheeses.
  • Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pizza will be. Fresh vegetables, flavorful cheese, and a tasty sauce will make all the difference. Don't overload the pizza: Too many toppings can make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook. A few well-chosen toppings are all you need for a delicious pizza. Cook the pizza at a high temperature: This will help the crust get crispy and the cheese melt evenly. The higher temperature of 450-500°F allows the pizza to cook faster, preventing the crust from becoming too dry or soggy. Use a pizza stone or baking sheet: A pizza stone or baking sheet will help the pizza cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan. Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing: This will help the cheese set and make it easier to slice the pizza.

Conclusion:

Loaded pizzas are a delicious and easy way to feed a crowd. With a few simple tips, you can make a loaded pizza that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give loaded pizza a try. You won't be disappointed!
