- 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Fresh corn kernels (or canned, drained)
- 1 piece Avocado, diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro leaves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Sour cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the pre-made pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
Brush the pizza crust with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Evenly sprinkle the shredded Mexican cheese blend over the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
While the crust is baking, prepare the Mexican salad. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, corn kernels, black beans, red onion, diced avocado, and cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, fresh lime juice, sour cream, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Once the pizza crust has cooled slightly, top it with the Mexican salad mixture, spreading evenly across the crust.
Slice the salad pizza into wedges or squares and serve immediately. Enjoy your Mexican Fiesta Salad Pizza!
