Ingredients:

  • 2 (8 oz) cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 envelope taco seasoning mix
  • 16 oz can refried beans
  • 2-3 cups shredded cheddar cheese or Mexican blend
  • ½ cup chopped tomatoes
  • ¼ cup sliced black olives
  • 4 chopped green onions

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb of ground beef over medium-high heat for 7-10 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  3. Return beef to the skillet, add the taco seasoning mix and ½-2/3 cup of water. Simmer until most liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally.
  4. Unroll the crescent rolls into rectangles. Press into the jelly roll pan, making the crust and pressing up the edges by ½ inch.
  5. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Microwave the refried beans for 1 minute to soften.
  7. Spread the warmed refried beans evenly over the baked crust.
  8. Spoon the seasoned ground beef evenly over the refried beans.
  9. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the beef layer.
  10. Evenly distribute chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, and chopped green onions over the cheese.
  11. Return the taco pizza to the oven for 3-6 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  12. Let the taco pizza sit for a few minutes before cutting into squares or rectangles and serve hot.
