Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ball of gluten free pizza dough or 1 pre-made crust, you can also use non-gluten free
- 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- Pre-bake your pizza crust if needed. Pre-heat oven to correct temperature for pizza crust you are using.
- Place chickpeas on a large plate or shallow bowl. Mash them lightly with a potato masher or fork. It is ok if you leave some whole. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Then add chickpeas and all seasonings. Cook for 5 minutes until chickpeas are beginning to crisp. Set aside.
- Evenly spread the taco sauce over the top of the pizza, then evenly distribute the chickpeas on top. Finally, add the cheese and bake in the pre-heated oven until the crust is cooked through and the cheese is melted, 10-20 minutes, depending on your crust.
- Let pizza cool for a few minutes and then top with your favorite taco toppings and enjoy!
Notes
