Ingredients
- 2 (12-inch) pre-baked pizza crusts (see note 1)
- 16 ounces refried beans (about 2 cups)
- 3/4 cup salsa (see note 2)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning homemade or store-bought (see note 3)
- 1 cup water
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups tortilla chips crushed
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 2 medium tomatoes chopped
- hot sauce for serving
- sour cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, brown ground beef. Drain well. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Place crusts on un-greased pizza pans or baking sheets. In a medium bowl, combine refried beans and salsa. Spread evenly over pizza crusts. Top with taco meat mixture.
- Top with shredded cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with lettuce and tomatoes. Drizzle with hot sauce or pass separately. Serve sour cream on the side.
Notes
- Pizza crust: A store-bought, pre-baked pizza crust such as Boboli means you can have this on the table in about 20 minutes. Or, bake up your favorite homemade pizza dough.
- Salsa: To make a basic pico de gallo, In a medium bowl, add 1 pound diced tomatoes, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup minced cilantro, 3 minced jalapeños, 1 tbsp. lemon juice, 1 tbsp. lime juice, and salt to taste. Stir to combine. Or, substitute 1 jar store-bought.
- Taco seasoning: A store-bought packet works great. To DIY a packet's worth of homemade taco seasoning, whisk together 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin, 3/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and salt to taste (I like 1/2 teaspoon). Add 1 teaspoon cornstarch if you prefer a thickener in your taco seasoning.
- Yield: This recipe makes 2 (12-inch) pizzas, enough to feed 8 people (1/4 pizza each).
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
