I know that the new rage is owning a wood-burning oven.  Here are a couple of fun recipes:

OVEN NACHOS 

Here’s an easy recipe we’ve all done before, but perhaps not in a wood fired over. Grab these ingredients and celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a hot bowl of tasty oven nachos.

INGREDIENTS

Bag of your favorite nachos
Jar of salsa
Jar of jalapenos
1 chili, finely chopped
Grated cheese

DIRECTIONS

1. First, put your nachos on a baking tray that will fit into the Uuni or whatever wood-fired pizza oven you’re using.

2. Cover with salsa, cheese, chili, and jalapeños.

3. Put in the Uuni, cook for 1 minute.

4. Enjoy with your favorite Mexican-inspired cold refreshment.

TEX-MEX WOOD FIRED PIZZA
Spice up your traditional Cinco-de-Mayo themed menu with this Tex-Mex Wood Fired Pizza recipe from Uuni. 
INGREDIENTS
Classic Dough 
Classic Sauce
Salsa
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
Handful of grated cheddar, or shredded mozzarella
1/2 of a small red onion, sliced into rings
1/4 tin of mixed beans, or refried beans
1 small avocado, sliced
1 small gem lettuce, finely chopped
DIRECTIONS
1. First, light up your Uuni or whatever wood-fired pizza oven you own.
2. Next, flour your pizza peel and spread the classic dough over the top into a pizza base shape.
3. Spread a couple of spoons of classic pizza sauce over the base and (if you’re feeling daring) sprinkle the chili powder and cumin over the top.
4. Now you can add your cheese of choice, followed by the chopped onion and beans.
5. Using the peel, slide the pizza into the Uuni and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes.
6. Remove from the heat and cover the center of the pizza with a bed of chopped lettuce and some avocado slices.
