Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tube (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
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • Toppings for serving: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, sliced jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 12×17 inch rimmed baking sheet.
  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, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven.
  4. While the crust bakes, cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
  5. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring 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 beans, spreading it to cover the surface.
  8. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the meat layer.
  9. Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  10. Remove the pizza from the oven. Spread the salsa over the melted cheese.
  11. Slice the sheet pan taco pizza into squares. Serve immediately with your choice of fresh toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and jalapeños on the side for customization.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, lightly crush a handful of tortilla chips and sprinkle them over the cheese before the final bake.
  • If you prefer a thicker crust, use pre-made pizza dough instead of crescent rolls.
  • Prepare all your cold toppings ahead of time so assembly is fast when the pizza comes out of the oven.
