The best of both worlds – tacos and pizza in one amazing dish!

More About This Recipe

  • I’m pretty sure that I could live on tacos. Or pizza. Or egg drop soup. (Ok ok, no soup in this recipe.) But when you combine tacos AND pizza, I’m definitely a happy camper! Especially when the pizza is loaded up with all sorts of delicious salsa, seasoned meat and my kind of “greens.” And, this recipe uses a fabulous whole grain pizza crust that brings it all together in minutes. If you’re not a hamburger person, feel free to substitute chicken or sausage instead. Or you can easily go vegetarian! However you make it, I think you’ll love this simple Taco Pizza. Layer on some “greens” – chopped lettuce, avocado, green onions and fresh cilantro. Pretty! Then drizzle with some sour cream if you’d like. (I just spooned some into a thick Ziplock bag, and snipped off the corner and drizzled away!) And then voila! A delicious taco pizza is ready to go in minutes.
