I hope that I can convey how delicious this 5 ingredient jalapeno enchilada pizza recipe is and that I can do this magnificent pizza justice. If you wanted to make a recipe from my Five Ingredient Friday’s series, this one would definitely be right at the top of my list.

Perfect recipe for a super easy 5 ingredient meatless Monday

I sometimes title recipes as “bests” here on the SweetPhi blog. Like the best pumpkin loaf, or the best turkey tacos. This pizza definitely falls in the “bests” category, so let me tel you the story of how this 5 ingredient pizza recipe came to be.

The best recipe for jalapeno enchilada pizza

So you know how there are somethings that may seem ‘weird’ food wise? Like dipping fries into milkshakes. That combo is crazy good. Or like making Korean tacos, Asian food mixed with Mexican food? It just works.

Just like this pizza.

It’s crazy good and unexpected.

It started when we had cream cheese as a topping on pizza at a restaurant. We were hesitant to order it. Cream cheese. On a pizza? Ummm…weird. Cream cheese should be used as a bagel spread, or in a dip, right? RIGHT?

The best ever jalapeno enchilada cream cheese pizza

Well, when we tried the pizza, omg. It was so good. Was it the cream cheese? I had to try it out at home to see.

And yup, I’m here to tell you: pizza with cream cheese on top is the best.

I’m also really digging enchiladas (like these 5 ingredient shrimp and black bean enchiladas) and have a ton of jalapenos growing in my garden (as you know from my 5 ingredient jalapeno cheddar dip last year, and this year it’s the same!) , so while we were getting crazy with the pizza toppings, why not use enchilada sauce as a pizza sauce?

The end result? Amazing!

We even made it at my in-laws for Sunday dinner, when they were having one of their famous pizza parties where pizzas are made using a kettlepizza grill attachment (here and here are past ones).

    I made this for dinner last night and my husband and I both LOVED it! This pizza will definitely be added to our Friday night easy meal rotation. I was able to assemble the pizza while my oven preheated, and then while the pizza was in the oven I threw together a quick arugula-cherry tomato-avocado salad to accompany it. Easy and delicious! I used pickled jalapeno slices because that’s what I had on hand (and I’m super sensitive to the fresh ones and inevitably end up with burning hands no matter how careful I am). We were also surprised how much we liked the *cheap) thin crust I picked up from Aldi. I’m excited that I now have an extra crust and enchilada sauce in the freezer waiting for the next time I make this!

      Thank you SO MUCH for coming back and leaving this awesome comment! So happy you loved this pizza (your side salad sounds amazing) and good to know one can use pickled jalapeno slices, and about the thin crust from Aldi! Also great idea about freezing the leftover sauce, I’m totally going to do that!

I forgot where I read it, but it was something abo I forgot where I read it, but it was something about 'normalizing normal/slightly ugly/normal kitchens' and that resonated with me. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we moved into our house, my original thought was "I absolutely love the house, but maybe we'll redo the kitchen in 5 years to be all white" 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why though? Because everyone else is doing that and it's 'cool'?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After having lived in our house for 6+ months, now the most I have dreams of doing is maybe to redo the laminate countertops that are peeling in some places. Maybe. One day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But this isn't some before/after post. It's just a post about saying your kitchen/home is fine the way it is, and if you don't have some pinterest board or desire to change your entire kitchen, that's a-ok.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE looking at beautiful kitchens and spaces, so I'll just continue adding pretty images to my weekly love-lists and leaving it there - for looking at pretty things vs. wishing to change my house or feeling bad about my kitchen.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Personally, I love my house. It feels homey and welcoming, and that's the vibe I'm going to keep going with.
