1cupiceberg or romaine lettuce, thinkly sliced or shredded
optional: cilantro, finely chopped
Instructions
If using a homemade pizza dough recipe, roll out the pizza dough to a 14" round crust. Bake at 400°F for 7-8 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, garlic, onions, taco seasoning, and sauté together, stirring constantly, until the meat is cooked through. This takes about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Remove pizza crust from the oven and brush the top with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Then use a spoon to evenly spread refried beans and salsa over the top of the crust, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges. Top with ground beef mixture and shredded cheese.
Return to oven and bake at 400°F for 5-10 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
Remove from oven, then top evenly with sliced lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and sliced black olives. Optional: sprinkle with cilantro and serve with a side of sour cream.
Notes
This recipe makes enough for one 14" pizza.Substitution suggestions:
If you don't have Roma tomatoes, you can substitute almost any type of tomato, including cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes
Storage: wrap leftovers in foil and keep in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. I find pizza is best re-heated in an air fryer or oven for a couple of minutes. You can also microwave a slice for one minute. Or, enjoy pizza leftovers cold!
