Crescent Dough Taco Pizza
Easy to use Crescent dough forms the base of this kid-approved Taco Pizza for a fast weeknight meal the whole family will enjoy!
Similar to my Cheesy Taco Pasta recipe, this Taco Pizza has some Mexican flavors but is combined with some kid-friendly components. To change up our Taco night, I made a pizza version using similar ingredients to crispy beef tacos.
Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this crescent dough taco pizza.
- Crescent Dough
- Refried Beans
- Seasoned Ground Beef
- Lettuce
- Tomato
- Avocado
- Sour Cream
I also added hot sauce and pickled onions to my slice, so good!
How to Make
Bake the crescent dough on a baking sheet, and cook the ground beef with taco seasoning. Once the dough is golden, spread a layer of refried beans. Then add the ground beef and shredded cheese. Place it back in the oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
Now add the fresh toppings: shredded lettuce, tomatoes, diced avocado, and dollops of sour cream. Slice the pizza and enjoy! If you plan to have leftovers, add only the toppings to each serving slice, and refrigerate the remaining pizza. Reheat it in the oven until warmed through and add the fresh toppings afterwards.
