Very tasty and quite easy. Note: Do not put veggies on the whole pizza if you want to have leftovers...they get yucky when you try to re-heat. I also like to substitute pepper jack cheese for cheddar.

Time 40m

Yield 1 pizza, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chili peppers, drained
1 1/2 ounces taco seasoning mix
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1 (10 ounce) package refrigerated pizza dough
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans with jalapeno peppers, rinsed and drained
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces) or 1 cup monterey jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion
bottled taco sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • In large skillet cook meat until brown. Drain off fat. Stir in 3/4 cup water, chile peppers, taco seasoning mix, and chile powder.
  • Bring to boil; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes (until most of the liquid is gone).
  • Meanwhile, grease a baking sheet and sprinkle with the cornmeal. Pat pizza dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle on the baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes.
  • In a bowl, mash beans with a fork; spread over partially baked dough to within 1/2 inch of the edges.
  • Spoon meat mixture over beans. Bake uncovered, 10 minutes more, or until crust is just golden.
  • Sprinkle with cheese. Bake 1-2 minutes more (until cheese melts).
  • Top with lettuce, tomato, and onion. If desired, serve with taco sauce.
