Ingredients
- 12 corn tortillas, small
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 1 can refried beans, fat-free, low-sodium
- 1/4 cup onion
- 2 ounces fresh or canned green chili peppers
- 3 tablespoons red taco sauce
- 3 cups vegetables, such as broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, and red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup cheese, shredded part-skim mozzarella
- cilantro
Steps
Wash hands with soap and water.
Brush one side of each of two tortillas with water. Press the wet sides of the tortillas together to form a thick crust for the pizza.
Brush the outside of the tortillas with a small amount of oil or margarine. Evenly brown both sides in a heated frying pan. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas. Set aside.
Heat refried beans, onion, and half of the chili peppers together in a medium saucepan, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
Spread about 1/3 cup of the bean mixture on each tortilla pizza. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon taco sauce, then top with 1/2 cup of the chopped vegetables, 1 teaspoon chili peppers, and 1 tablespoon cheese for each pizza.
Return to frying pan and heat until cheese melts. Top with cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately.
