When Iâm in a rush, I take advantage of convenient prepared pizza crust to create this Mexican-style pizza. If you like it spicy, add a little chopped jalapeno pepper to the skillet when cooking the beef.Mary Detweiler, Middlefield, Ohio Ingredients:
1-1/4 pounds ground beef |
1 small onion, chopped |
1/2 cup water |
1 envelope taco seasoning |
1 prebaked 12-inch pizza crust |
1 can (16 ounces) refried beans |
2 taco shells, coarsely crushed |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
2 cups torn iceberg lettuce |
2 medium tomatoes, chopped |
1 tablespoon sliced ripe olives |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in water and taco seasoning. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, place crust on an ungreased baking sheet. Spread with refried beans. Top with the beef mixture, taco shells and cheeses. Bake at 450° for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with lettuce, tomatoes and olives. Yield: 8 servings.
