This 15-minute Flatbread Taco Pizza is our family's favorite for Taco Tuesday OR Friday pizza night! It's got a crunchy homemade flatbread crust topped with refried beans, taco sauce, black beans, veggies, and plenty of cheese! Top with avocado and tortilla strips for an epic vegetarian meal your family will love!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 flatbread pizza crusts
  • 2/3 cup refried beans
  • 1/4 cup taco sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup sliced red pepper
  • 1/2 cup canned corn, drained
  • 1/2 canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup crumbled Cotija cheese

Garnish:

Instructions

  1. Make my quick and easy 5-minute homemade flatbread recipe (following the instructions to par-bake it before topping) or use two storebought naans or flatbread.
  2. Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  3. Divide refried beans evenly between the flatbreads, spreading it in an even layer. Add a drizzle of taco sauce to each flatbread crust.
  4. Add mozzarella cheese, red onion, and red pepper to each flatbread.
  5. Add corn and black beans along with crumbled Cotija cheese.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the flatbread crust is crispy and golden brown around the edges.
  7. Garnish with tortilla strips, jalapenos, avocado, Cotija, and sour cream.

Notes

If you don't have time to make my super easy 5-minute flatbread dough - although, seriously, who doesn't have 5 minutes?!?!? - you can use naan or any store-bought flatbread in its place. You could even use pizza dough in its place as well!

If you're planning to keep this dish vegetarian, make sure you look for vegetarian refried beans. Traditional refried beans are made with lard (which is an animal product) but there are plenty of brands that offer vegetarian refried beans!

If you're not feeling refried beans for the base, you could use sour cream or salsa in its place as well. I can't get enough beans, to be honest, but I get that they're not everyone's jam, so feel free to switch it up with something you enjoy. I'm not going to lie, I've made this with crockpot queso dip as the base and it is DELISH!

I highly recommend taking the extra time to make my crispy, crunchy tortilla strips for this flatbread! It adds a bit more texture and makes it taste just like a taco!
