Viral Pizza Beans

NEEDS_IMAGE_REVIEW RECIPE IDENTITY Pizza beans as a bean-and-tomato dish predates 2026. This recipe represents the specific 2026 viral social-media format: creamy white beans, pizza sauce or marinara, melted mozzarella, and familiar pizza toppings in a fast skillet meal. Do not describe the dish itself as invented in 2026. CHEF'S NOTES Cannellini beans work especially well because they stay creamy inside without collapsing into the sauce. Great Northern beans are a good substitute. For a vegetarian version, omit the pepperoni and add sliced mushrooms, roasted peppers, or olives. Keep variations in the notes rather than loading the canonical recipe with every possible pizza topping. STORAGE Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or a covered skillet; broil briefly if you want to refresh the cheese. ALLERGENS Contains milk. Check marinara and pepperoni labels for individual allergen needs. NUTRITION NOTE Nutrition is an estimate and varies with marinara, cheese, and toppings.
