Have you been to CPK and tried their Chipotle pizza? well if you like that one then you are in luck this recipe is a copycat recipe from CPK chipotle Pizza. I have just used a flat bread to make it easier on me but you can alway use pre-made pizza crust. The Chipotle Flatbread Pizza is super easy to make and comes together in no time. You can make some of the components a couple days in advance and assemble the flatbread when ready to eat.
Here are some pointers:
- I get the flatbread from trader joes or Shop Rite, You can use ready made pizza crust as well.
- You can make chipotle sauce, avocado crema, and the black bean mixture a couple days earlier and store in the fridge separately.
- I use the Goya brand chipotle in adobo sauce,I blend the whole can and store it in an air tight container or freeze cubes of it.
- Some other recipes that calls for the chipotle in Four Bean Chipotle Chili, Chipotle Cauliflower Tacos.
- Some other recipe you can use the leftover avocado cream in, Chipotle Cauliflower Tacos, Achari Paneer Tacos, Black Bean Tacos.
Stay happy, stay hungry!
