Description

This homemade taco pizza combines the best of tacos and pizza into one flavorful dish with a crispy crust, taco-seasoned beef, gooey cheese, and fresh toppings. Perfect for family dinners or casual gatherings.


Ingredients

1 pound pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

1/2 pound ground beef or plant-based alternative

1 tablespoon taco seasoning

1/3 cup water

1/2 cup refried beans

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1/2 cup chopped tomatoes

1/2 cup shredded lettuce

1/4 cup sliced black olives

1/4 cup chopped red onions

1/4 cup sour cream

1 tablespoon milk

Optional: crushed tortilla chips, jalapeño slices, cilantro


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven during preheat.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned, then drain excess fat.
  3. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until thickened.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out pizza dough to desired thickness and place on parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza peel.
  5. Spread refried beans over the dough, then add taco meat evenly on top.
  6. Sprinkle cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses over the pizza.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
  8. Let cool for 5 minutes. Top with chopped tomatoes, lettuce, black olives, and red onions.
  9. Mix sour cream with milk and drizzle over pizza. Add optional toppings like crushed tortilla chips, jalapeño slices, or cilantro.
  10. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

Use spicy sausage or shredded chicken as a meat alternative.

Make it vegetarian with black beans or tofu.

Try guacamole or avocado slices for added richness.

Use a whole wheat or cauliflower crust for a healthier option.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheat in the oven at 375°F for 8–10 minutes for best results.
