I was looking through pinterest recently and came across an entry for taco pizza.  I thought how odd but I figured why not.  I put together a bit of taco meat, mango salsa, and cheese on a sourdough crust.  Baked for a bit.  Added a bit of sour cream and lettuce on top after.  My Beloved and I could not believe how good this was!  One of those so good that we both considered having another piece, which would made our tummies feel MUCH too full.  I know what my Beloved is having for lunch tomorrow!  

taco pizza

1/2 a pizza dough recipe (enough for 1 pizza)

1/4 a recipe of taco meat (use 1/2 pound meat)

1 cup of mango salso with a bit of heat or a salsa to your taste

4 ounces of a nice medium cheddar like Tillamook

sour cream for topping

lettuce for topping

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Press the dough out into a circle shape.  Bake for 8 minutes.  Pull out the crust.  Top with the taco meat.  Top next with the salsa.  Sprinkle cheese on top.  Bake for another 8 minutes or until cheese is very bubbly but not browned.

Slice into 8 pieces. 

Top with a bit of sour cream (if you like) and a bit of shredded lettuce.

It is really lovely, especially with everything made from scratch.  It was very hard for me to stop just at two pieces.  But I did.  More for my Beloved's lunch tomorrow.
