Grilled Mexican Pizza

I made a meatless meal...

And loved it!

I mean, I knew I loved the ingredients involved. But I didn't know I liked them that much that I wouldn't even miss the meat.

You see, I've been trying to eat a little better these days. And this recipe was packed full of bright and flavorful veggies, + I got it from Cooking Light which means it's gotta be better than scarfing down a huge burger or fried chicken, right?

Please don't hold this healthy thing against me though, k? Especially if you're following my instagram... you may or may not see endless photos of margaritas and frozen yogurt and starchy chips and loaded sweets and sushi and... you get my drift.

But this recipe though...

If this is what health{ier} looks like, I'm on board.

Rainbow pizza, is what I should call this.

So many things going on! Creamy avocados soaked in lime juice, grilled corn, fresh romaine, juicy tomatoes, and sweet red onions atop refried beans and that crispy crust. Exactly.

This was my first time grilling a pizza, and it surely won't be the last. I've gotta eventually move up to making my own pizza dough and crust! That's on one of my bucket lists.

Peace, and bacon grease!
