jeff’s amazing mexican pizza

I’m going to venture into posting a savory recipe today, because this crazy-sounding mexican pizza that Jeff dreamed up is just too delicious (and easy) to keep to myself.

Preheat the oven to 425ºF.

Start with preparing the crust. Since we usually make pizza when we’re wanting dinner sooner rather than later, we just buy pizza crust (usually multigrain) at the grocery store and keep it in the freezer until a pizza craving hits.

Once your crust is ready to go, spread mashed butternut squash on the crust. Canned pumpkin also works well.

Next, spread refried beans on top of the squash.

Then spread on some salsa. Then layer on some spinach leaves. Then we throw on some broccoli for good measure. Other vegetable toppings would probably also be fabulous!

Finally, top with grated cheese (we use soy cheese). Bake at 425ºF for about 12-15 minutes.

Enjoy this unexpectedly delicious combination of flavors!
