Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup refried beans, warmed
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • Sour cream, for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a standard 12×17 inch sheet pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared sheet pan. Press the dough together to form a single, even rectangle crust, sealing any perforations.
  3. Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes until it is lightly golden. Remove the pan from the oven.
  4. While the crust bakes, cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain any excess fat.
  5. Stir the taco seasoning mix and water into the cooked beef. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Spread the warmed refried beans evenly over the partially baked crust.
  7. Spoon the seasoned taco meat over the layer of beans.
  8. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the meat layer.
  9. Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  10. Remove the pizza from the oven. Top immediately with salsa, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and black olives, if using.
  11. Slice the sheet pan taco pizza into squares and serve warm with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

Notes

  • For a crispier base, you can lightly brush the dough with olive oil before adding the beans.
  • Use your favorite taco toppings; black beans or corn kernels work well added before baking.
  • If you prefer a thicker, more traditional pizza crust, use pre-made pizza dough instead of crescent rolls.
