So my friend has a little boy who is somewhat of a picky eater and told me the other day that she pureed Great Northern beans into her son's pasta sauce.  Brilliant!  So then I thought, if you can add beans, what else can you add?  I may have gotten a little carried away - but  guess what?  My 3 year old seriously loved it.  I am.not.kidding.around.here.  She was literally eating it with a spoon.

I began by pureeing:

• Marinara Sauce
• Garbanzo Beans (you can use any white bean - or probably pinto or kidney also)
• Carrots (I used puree because I already had carrots pureed)
• Spinach
• Spices (I added Oregano, a little black pepper and No-salt Italian seasoning)

I added a lot of beans and so mine turned out pretty thick.  It had the consistency of a hummus, but tasted like pizza sauce!  You can definitely add less beans.

Spread on your pizza crust.  I used this recipe for the crust, but used whole wheat flour.

Add your toppings.........

Bake and devour!!  Verdict:  Both my 3 year old and 18 month old loved it.  I really think they liked it better than commercial pizza.  This dough recipe was a little softer and easier to chew for my girls.  Great for a fun weekend meal.
