Pizza with Tacos

Some nights you want something fun, and some nights you want comfort food. You make taco pizza when you don't want to pick one or the other. It combines everything we love about taco night—spicy meat, melty cheese, and crunchy pizza—with the cheesy goodness of pizza.
Course: Appetizer, Snack
Cuisine: American, Mexican

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large prepared pizza crust
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 15-ounce can refried beans
  • cup pico de gallo or salsa
  • cups shredded taco-style or Mexican blend cheese
  • Optional Toppings
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Chopped tomatoes
  • Chopped green onions
  • Sour cream

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and place the pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza pan.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until fully browned and cooked through. Drain excess grease if needed.
  3. Stir in the taco seasoning and cook for 1–2 minutes, allowing the spices to bloom and coat the meat evenly. Remove from heat.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the refried beans and pico de gallo (or salsa) until smooth and well combined.
  5. Spread the bean mixture evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Spoon the seasoned ground beef over the bean layer, then sprinkle evenly with the shredded cheese.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is heated through.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Finish with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, green onions, sour cream, or any additional taco-style toppings before slicing and serving.
  9. Enjoy!
