Instructions
For the Pizza Dough:
Pour liquid ingredients and salt into the pan of a bread machine.
Add the flour and cornmeal.
Make a well in the center and add the yeast.
Place the pan into the bread machine and set to the DOUGH cycle
When machine beeps, unplug but do not open the lid! Allow to rise for 30 additional minutes.
Remove dough and split into 2 balls. Mine were 12 ounces each.
To make the Pizzas:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees with your baking stone on the center shelf if using one.
Roll dough into desired shape on a floured work surface.
Sprinkle a pizza peel or flat cookie sheet with cornmeal or line with parchment paper. Place pizza crust on the the peel.
Heat refried beans in microwave for 25 seconds to make them easier to spread, then spread over crust.
Place chicken in a large bowl and add taco sauce. Stir to combine.
Sprinkle the chicken over the beans.
Evenly sprinkle the cheese over the chicken. Bake for 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Place guacamole in a zipper top bag and snip off the corner (or you can use Wholly Guacamole)
"Drizzle" over the to of the pizza.
Add lettuce, salsa, sour cream, and olives.
Garnish with chopped cilantro. Slice pizza and serve.
Notes
If you have time to chill the dough in the refrigerator it is worth it.
