Equipment
- sheet pans
- large skillet
Ingredients
- 2 pkgs refrigerated Pillsbury pizza crust
- 2 lbs ground beef
- 2 medium yellow onions, diced
- 1 pkg taco seasoning blend (3 TBS)
- 1 (10.75oz) can cheddar cheese soup
- 1 (10oz) can refried beans
- 1 (8oz) bag shredded Mexican blend cheese
- favorite taco toppings: shredded iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes, green onions, sour cream, olives
Instructions
- Form pizza dough on rectangular sheet pans and pre-cook for 9 minutes. The temperature of oven can be found on back of pizza dough package.
- Meanwhile, brown ground beef and onions in a large skillet over medium high heat until ground beef is no long pink and onions are softened. Drain excess grease. Sprinkle in taco seasoning and stir for 2 minutes. Turn off burner.
- In a small microwave bowl heat the refried beans for 1 minute and stir.
- Pizza dough should be partially baked at this time. Spread the refried beans evenly on pizza crust.NOTE: you can skip this step on entire pizza crust or on a portion (if some don't like the beans).
- Spread the cheddar cheese soup over the refried beans.NOTE: if no refried beans are used or only on a portion of crust, spread the cheddar cheese soup over the crust not covered with beans. (It's really delicious.)
- Top the beans & cheese with the cooked seasoned ground beef mixture.
- Sprinkle the shredded Mexican cheese blend on top of the ground beef mixture.
- Place back in the oven (that's still heated at temperature on back of pizza crust package) for the remainder of the bake time around 9 minutes. Crust should be golden, crusty, and cooked through.
- Remove from oven and top with favorite taco toppings: shredded iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, olives, green onions, etc.NOTE: Place 1/2 cup sour cream in ziploc bag and cut tip off at bottom of bag and swirl sour cream all over taco pizza.
