Mexican Pizza


This pizza was so good! I was unable to actually use the refried beans because my husband hates them so I substituted regular pizza sauce and it was still soooo good! We ate ours topped with a little bit of sour cream and it was perfect!


Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef
1 envelope taco seasoning mix
2 (8 oz.) cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
1 (16 oz.) can refried beans or regular pizza sauce (My husband hates refried beans so I had to use pizza sauce)
2-3 cups Mexican blend cheese
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/4 cup sliced black olives
4 green onions, chopped

Directions:

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Brown ground beef and drain.

Add taco seasoning to the ground beef according to the package directions.

Unroll crescent rolls into rectangles.

Place in ungreased 11 1/2 inch x 16 1/2 inch jelly roll pan or cookie sheet.

Press dough over the bottom and 1/2 inch up sides to form crust.

Bake at 375 oven for 7  minutes or just until golden brown.

If using beans, microwave beans in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute.

Carefully spread beans or pizza sauce over warm crust creating a thin layer. 

Top with cooked beef mixture, sprinkle with cheese followed by tomatoes, black olives and green onion.

Return to oven for 5-6 more minutes until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.  

ENJOY!!
