How to Make Tex Mex Pizza
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Coat two 12-inch pizza pans with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of cornmeal per pan.
- Divide 1 lb of pizza dough in half and roll each portion into a 12-inch circle.
- Carefully transfer the dough to the prepared pans and gently build up the edges to create a slightly raised crust.
- Prick the dough thoroughly with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
- Bake for 12 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 medium yellow bell pepper (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Cook until the beef is no longer pink and the vegetables are softened.
- Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can refried beans, 1 (16-ounce) jar salsa, 1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chilies (drained), and 1 tablespoon chili powder. Heat through.
- Spread the beef and bean mixture evenly over the pre-baked pizza crusts.
- Sprinkle generously with 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 6-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top with 1 cup chopped tomatoes and 1 cup shredded lettuce.
- Let cool slightly, slice, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
