Notes

Top tips for making Barbecue Black Bean, Red Pepper, and Corn Pizza

  • Be sure to pre-heat your oven before cooking the pizza.
  • Use a whole wheat pizza dough for extra goodness. For store-bought refrigerated dough, let it sit it at room temperature for two hours prior to baking.
  • Use a barbecue sauce that is low in sugar.
  • If planning to freeze this pizza for future use before baking, place a piece of parchment on a metal pizza pan or heavy-duty piece of cardboard, assemble your pizza on the cardboard (or pan) and freeze altogether.
  • To make vegan, just substitute the mozzarella with a vegan cheese. You could also omit the cheese completely and it'll still taste great!
