This Easy Taco Pizza combines two of my all-time favorite foods – pizza and tacos! This recipe is the perfect combination of both flavors! Pizza dough topped with taco sauce, refried beans, taco meat, and cheese. This is SO easy to make and it tastes great! The whole family gobbled this up. Taco Tuesday has never tasted so delicious!
How to Make Taco Pizza
This pizza is super easy to make with only a few simple ingredients. Cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Drain excess grease. Add a taco seasoning packet and water. Simmer for 5 minutes or until the water has been absorbed. Set aside.
Unroll a can of pizza dough and press into the bottom and up the sides of a 15×10 baking sheet that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake in a preheated oven for 5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine refried beans and taco sauce. Spread bean mixture over partially baked pizza crust. Top with ground beef mixture and shredded cheese. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with cilantro or parsley.
