Taco Pizza with Refried Black Beans
Are you still on the fence about what to prepare for today’s big game? This taco pizza is an easy pizza that is perfect for game day. I first fell in love with taco pizza when I use to work at Pizza Hut. It was the only one of their pizzas I would eat when I worked there. This pizza is just as good on a thin and crispy crust, as it is on a traditional crust. This time I made the pizza on a traditional crust. It is more filling with the thicker crust and great for parties. For my pizza, I used my leftover black bean soup, which consisted of about 2 cups of beans and not much soup. I reheated the beans, while mashing them with a potato masher. I heated them until they had thickened the consistency of refried beans. You can also just use a can of black beans, and mash them up, or just use refried beans. I then pre-baked my pizza dough and topped the dough with the refried beans. Then I topped that with seasoned ground turkey and shredded cheese. After this bakes, cut the pizza before adding the cold toppings. Serve with salsa and sour cream.
