Notes

Nutritional values may vary. Those stated here are based on ⅛ of a pizza.

To Make Ahead: assemble according to the recipe and store the uncooked pizza in the fridge until ready to bake, up to 12 hours. Alternatively, you can freeze the pizza for a later day. Do not thaw before baking. You can also freeze baked pizzas as well!

Serving Suggestions: This makes an excellent lunch or Friday night dinner. Serve Black Bean Pizza as you would any other pizza or Mexican food, with a simple green salad or coleslaw. Be sure to serve the recommended burrito pizza toppings.

How to Make a Meal Prep: You can divide the cooked pizza into single-serve containers for meal prep. Or you can make four mini pizzas. Bake and store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Freeze for longer storage.

Make a Plan for Leftovers: Leftover pizza is delicious reheated in the air fryer or toaster oven the next day. Promptly refrigerate leftovers and use within 4 days. Remember that food should not be left at room temperature for longer than 2 hours.
