Ingredients for Taco Supreme Pizza

The star of the show is the ground beef, seasoned with a taco seasoning packet to bring that familiar, spicy taco flavor. Refried beans serve as a hearty base, adding creaminess and a touch of authenticity. A blend of shredded cheddar cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese creates a gooey, melty topping. Freshness comes from chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro. Finally, sour cream and avocado slices add creaminess and richness to each bite.

Tips & Tricks

For an extra crispy crust, pre-bake the pizza crust for 5 minutes before adding the beans and toppings.
Use a pizza stone if you have one; it distributes heat more evenly.
If you like it spicy, add some sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes on top.

Serving Suggestions

This Taco Supreme Pizza pairs perfectly with a side of tortilla chips and homemade salsa. To complete the meal, serve with a simple green salad dressed with lime vinaigrette. And for a fun twist, offer a variety of hot sauces at the table so everyone can customize their slices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use ground turkey instead of ground beef?: Absolutely! Ground turkey is a great alternative and makes the dish a bit lighter.
What if I don't have refried beans?: You can mash some black beans or pinto beans as a substitute.
Can I make this pizza vegetarian?: Yes, skip the ground beef and add more veggies or a meat substitute like seasoned tofu or tempeh.

Taco Supreme Pizza Recipe Walkthrough

Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This gives you ample time to prep the toppings while the oven gets nice and hot. Grab a skillet, place it over medium-high heat, and toss in the ground beef. Cook it until there’s no pink left, breaking it up as you go. Drain any excess fat to keep things light.

Add the taco seasoning and water to the beef, stirring until everything is well coated. Let it simmer until it thickens a bit, then set it aside. Now, take your pizza crust and spread the refried beans over it evenly. This is your base layer, so make sure it’s nice and smooth.

Next, layer the seasoned beef over the beans. Follow this with a generous sprinkle of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Pop it into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 12-15 minutes. Keep an eye out for bubbly cheese and a golden-brown crust.

Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool slightly. This is the perfect time to chop your fresh toppings. Sprinkle the chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro on top for a burst of color and flavor.

Finally, serve your pizza with dollops of sour cream and avocado slices. These add the perfect finishing touch.
