MEXICAN BLACK BEAN PIZZA

July 3, 2013

This week I shared on social media, “might have just ate the best thing i’ve ever made. or maybe i’m just hungry.” Ew, yes, like virtually all tweets, I 1) didn’t use proper capitalization and 2) this was not something anyone really needed to know. BUT ACTUALLY IT WAS something you needed to know. Because as of this post, you now have access to said recipe, and it might be a very tasty nosh for your family to nosh. Really, I think I may double take next time I think to make a quesadilla because this was way better.
