Equipment

  • 2 12-inch cast iron skillets, see recipe notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (12-16 oz) ready-made refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 white or red onion, diced
  • 8 oz Frontera Beef Taco Seasoning Sauce (suggested brand)
  • 1 (15 oz) can refried beans
  • 1/2 cup red taco sauce (La Victoria brand or similar)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • Cooking spray or oil

Additional topping ideas:

  • Green onions
  • Avocado slices or guacamole
  • Sliced black olives
  • Salsa

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425° F.
  • In a large skillet, cook and crumble ground beef and onion. Drain grease if needed then stir in Frontera taco seasoning. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a bowl, add refried beans and taco sauce then stir to combine well.
  • Lightly spray two 12-inch cast iron skillets with cooking spray or coat with a little cooking oil. Add pizza dough to each skillet then press to fit pan.
  • Top each pizza with half of the refried beans mixture leaving about a 1/2 inch edge. Top each with half of the ground beef mixture then 1 cup each of shredded cheddar.
  • Place in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cooked through. Let sit for 5 minutes then top with lettuce, tomato, sour cream and any other "taco" toppings you desire.

Notes

  1. If you don't have a cast iron skillet or if you only have one, you can also use any deep skillet that can be used in an oven. 
  2. A Dutch oven would work great too in the oven or over coals outside camping.
