A new way to serve an old favorite!
1 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 9-inch pizza crust
1 cup quartered cherry or grape tomatoes
1/3 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup chopped kalamata olives
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Preheat oven to 450 F or 500 F (the highest setting, but not broil). Move oven rack to highest position. If using a baking stone, place stone on rack and heat at least 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine black beans, olive oil and 1 tablespoon chili powder; set aside. In a separate bowl, combine tomato sauce, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, salt and pepper.
Lay pizza crust flat. Roll edges up slightly and spread a layer of sauce over crust. (Freeze remaining sauce for another pizza.) Sprinkle black beans over sauce; add tomatoes, onions and olives. Layer cheese over top. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until crust is golden. Makes 6 slices.
