Take note
Be sure to handle spicy ingredients with care and be mindful of hot surfaces in the kitchen while preparing this delicious dish.

1

Preheat the oven

Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure that your pizza bakes to perfection and gets that irresistible golden crust.

2

Prepare the crust

Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If you prefer a thinner crust, roll it out thinner. If you like a thicker crust, keep it a bit thicker. Flexibility is the key to pizza happiness!

3

Build the base

Spread a generous helping of your favorite taco sauce over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges. This zesty base will infuse your pizza with Tex-Mex goodness.

4

Layer on the toppings

Now it's time to load up your pizza with all the flavorful fixings. Start with a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese, followed by cooked ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning, sliced jalapeños for an extra kick, and diced tomatoes for some freshness.

5

Bake and enjoy!

Pop your pizza into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Once it's done, take it out, let it cool for a couple of minutes, and then slice it up. That's it—time to dig in and enjoy your Tex-Mex Taco Pizza feast!
