Ingredients
  • 12 corn tortillas (or, small low-fat flour or whole wheat tortillas)
  • 1 can (15.5 ounces) vegetarian refried beans
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Taco sauce to taste (red or green)
  • 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow squash
  • 1 cup light shredded cheese

Instructions
  1. Brush one side each of two tortillas with water. Press the wet sides together to form a crust for the pizza. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  2. Spray the outside of the tortillas with cooking spray and lightly brown each side in a nonstick skillet. Set aside.
  3. Heat the refried beans in a small pan or microwave until warm; stir in cumin. Remove from heat.
  4. Mix chopped vegetables together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  5. Spread about 1/3 cup of the beans on each tortilla pizza shell. Spread each pizza with taco sauce (to taste), top with ½ cup vegetable mixture and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese for each pizza.
  6. Return each pizza to skillet and heat until cheese melts.
  7. Garnish ideas: chopped tomato or salsa, jalapenos or diced green chiles, cilantro, sliced green onion, non-fat or light sour cream, avocado slices.
