Taco Pizza Rolls
Description
The Taco Pizza Rolls recipe features a pizza crust layered with browned ground beef seasoned with taco spices and water, then topped with shredded Mexican blend cheese. The dough is rolled tightly, sliced into individual rolls, and baked until golden brown. This method creates neatly portioned rolls with a melty, flavorful filling enclosed by soft dough with a slight crisp from baking.
These rolls offer a combination of warm taco-seasoned meat and melted cheese with a baked dough base, giving a convenient handheld way to enjoy taco ingredients. They can be served with typical taco toppings such as sour cream, lettuce, tomato, onion, and guacamole for added texture and freshness. The recipe provides a flexible way to enjoy familiar Mexican-inspired flavors in a different format.
Thanks to the make-ahead and freeze option mentioned, these rolls can be prepared in advance and stored for future baking, making them convenient for busy times or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1/2 /2 lb ground beef
- 1 pizza crust or homemade crust, Pillsbury refrigerated classic, canned
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix (from 1-oz package)
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 cup Mexican blend cheese shredded
- lettuce optional toppings
- tomato
- sour cream

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 ° and lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a medium skillet, cook and brown beef until no longer pink. Drain. Add taco seasoning and water and cook for 2-3 minutes. Set aside and cool slightly before using.
- Take pizza dough out of its package and unroll it onto a flat surface. Slightly roll or press the pizza dough out into a rectangle.
- Add the taco meat evenly on top of the pizza dough. Sprinkle the cheese evenly on top.
- Starting with the long edge of the pizza dough, roll dough tightly up into a roll. Using a serrated knife, make about 1-inch slices along the roll, making about 18 rolls.
- Place rolls on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until tops are golden brown.
- Serve immediately and top with desired toppings.
Notes
