Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef lean
- 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
- 1 large pizza dough crust (use my homemade pizza dough recipe here)
- 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
- 3 cups Colby-Jack cheese shredded
- 2 Roma tomato diced
- 1/4 cup black olive sliced
- 2 to 3 green onions sliced
Instructions
- Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Brown ground beef in a large skillet, over medium-high heat. Drain grease. Add taco seasoning to the ground beef according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, place pizza dough on a large (12x17-inch) greased baking sheet or pizza pan. Let dough sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. Press and stretch dough out to fit the pan.
- Place refried beans into a microwavable-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir well and then spread beans evenly over the top of pizza crust. Top beans evenly with the cooked ground beef mixture, sprinkle with cheese and then add the tomatoes, and black olives.
- Bake pizza for 16 to 18 minutes, or until crust is golden-brown. Remove pizza from oven and let stand 5 minutes to cool slightly. Sprinkle green onion all over the top. Cut into squares and serve with salsa, sour cream, etc. Enjoy!
- Store any leftovers in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
