Project Description

Serves 4

Recipe Ingredients:

  • 1-pound pizza dough or pre-made crust

  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup pizza sauce

  • 1 cup cooked navy beans

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • Any toppings you like, such as mushrooms, finely chopped purple onions, roasted peppers, bell peppers, or other veggies.

  • 1 to 4 large eggs

  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

For individual pizzas, divide the dough into 4 pieces and roll each out on a lightly floured surface.

To make one big pizza, roll it into an oblong oval, leaving it slightly thicker around the edge to contain the egg.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Transfer the dough to a heavy baking sheet that has been sprinkled with flour or cornmeal. Spread the dough with pizza sauce; scatter the beans on top of the sauce and top with cheese and any toppings you like.

Crack an egg into the middle of each individual pizza or 4 onto the large pizza. Bake for 15 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden, the cheese is melted, the egg white is set and the yolk is done to your taste. Garnish with basil leaves.
