Mexican Pizza
This is kid-friendly and adult-favorite at the same time. I mean, pizza is all-age favorite food and when you add the Mexican twist in it, it becomes even more appealing and palate pleasing. Mexico is so popular for the food and people. I have been to the country a few times. I absolutely loved there. The fresh sea breeze, the scenery and to top it all off, the trees full of mangoes, pomegranates and papayas! Every where you go, you will find this soothing and homey appeal. So, pack your bags. Let's go on a vacation to Mexico, once again!

1 can of refried beans, mashed

2-3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp dry oregano
