By cmschnettler

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
• 6 (6-inch) flour tortillas
• 1 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese/Monterrey jack mix, divided
• 1/2 onion, chopped
• 1 (15 oz) can black Beans, drained
• 2 oz of canned diced green chilies
• salsa, sour cream and guacamole – optional for topping

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven oven to 350 degrees.

Brush baking sheet with 1 Tbsp of olive oil. Place 4 of the tortillas on the baking sheet and top each with ¼ cup of cheese. Cover each tortilla with one of the remaining 4 tortillas. Bake at 350 for 5-6 minutes or until lightly browned.

Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat the remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil and cook onion until tender. Mix in black beans and green chilies. Use a potato masher or back of a fork to partially mash the mixture.

Remove tortilla pizzas from the oven and top with the bean mixture spreading evenly. Top each pizza with 2 Tbsp of cheese.

Return to oven and bake until cheese melts, about 10 minutes. Serves 4.
