Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup refried beans, warmed
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/2 cup salsa, drained
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives
  • Optional: Sour cream, sliced jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it onto a greased 12-inch pizza pan or baking sheet, forming a crust. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven.
  2. While the crust bakes, cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Spread the warmed refried beans evenly over the partially baked crescent roll crust.
  5. Spoon the seasoned taco meat over the beans. Sprinkle the shredded cheese blend evenly over the meat layer.
  6. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove the Taco Pizza from the oven. Top immediately with drained salsa, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes. Add olives and any other desired toppings.
  8. Slice and serve this flavorful fusion meal right away.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, you can pre-bake the dough for 10 minutes before adding toppings.
  • If you are making this for game day food, consider adding crushed tortilla chips over the top layer for extra crunch.
  • This recipe is a great base for a customizable pizza night; use your favorite taco toppings.
