Taco Pizza- Store bought pizza crust , refried beans and your favorite taco toppings give you two of your favorite dishes in one.
Taco Pizza is a quick and easy meal you can get on the table on a busy night and clean up is easy, too.
After a busy day I don't feel like I have the time to prepare a big meal for dinner and tacos are always a "go to" for me, but sometimes I still want something different. Tacos in Pasta Shells are a delicious way to change it up, but taco pizza is now a new favorite for us.
Using store bought pizza crust really helps to cut down on time, but if you'd prefer to use your trusty homemade pizza dough recipe that will work too.
I opened a can of refried beans and heated them up in a microwave bowl, which allowed the consistency to be spreadable and that's what I used as the "sauce" for the pizza.
Top with cheese some salsa and your favorite toppings for a yummy taco pizza.
Enjoy!!
