Place the shredding disc on the KitchenAid® Pro Line® 16-cup Food Processor. Insert cheese into the medium feed tube and shred the cheddar and monterey jack
cheeses. Remove the shredding disc. Use the spatula to move the cheese away from the center of the bowl and attach the multipurpose blade, pushing to lock.
2. Add the black beans, corn, red pepper, jalapeño, green onions, salt, and Sriracha. Pulse 20 times or until mixture is coarsely chopped and mixed well.
3.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fill a small bowl with water. Lay egg roll wrappers on the baking sheet and place 1 tablespoon of the black bean mixture lined near the bottom of each wrapper. Lightly wet the edges of the wrappers with fingertips and carefully fold the sides of each in towards the middle. Roll up and seal tightly.
4.
Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large sauté pan to 375 degrees. Fry the egg rolls in batches, 2-3 minutes on each side, or until brown and crispy. Place cooked egg rolls onto a plate lined with paper towel to absorb the oil. Egg rolls will crisp up further while sitting. Serve with sour cream.
Makes 22–25 egg rolls
Tip If a thermometer is unavailable, test the oil heat by placing a small amount of filling mixture into the pan. Oil is ready when it bubbles.

BARBECUE CHICKEN PIZZA
WITH WHOLE WHEAT CRUST
DIRECTIONS
for the Crust
1. In a medium sized bowl, sprinkle yeast over the water and let sit until yeast dissolves and expands, approximately 7 minutes. Add the room temperature water and olive oil and stir to combine.
2. In the work bowl of the KitchenAid® Pro Line® 16-cup Food Processor, pulse the bread flour, whole wheat flour and salt until well mixed, 15-20 times.

With the motor on low speed, pour the yeast mixture through the feed tube and process until dough begins to stick together. The dough should be pliable, but not wet. If too sticky or dry, add a little flour or water as needed. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it into a smooth ball.
4. Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Set the bowl in a warm place (or near a preheated oven set at 200 degrees) and allow to double in size for 2 hours.
5. After 2 hours, punch down dough and allow it to rest for 15 minutes. Separate the dough into 6 equal pieces. Use 2 pieces for this recipe, and place each of the other pieces into individual freezer bags to freeze for a later date.
