Step-by-Step Instructions for Mexican Fiestada Pizza
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare your workspace.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef for 5-7 minutes until browned. Drain excess grease and sprinkle in taco seasoning. Stir and cook for an additional minute.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough and stretch into thin crusts. Transfer to a nonstick baking sheet.
  4. Pre-bake the dough in the oven for 3 minutes until set but not browned.
  5. Mix pizza sauce with additional spices and spread over the pre-baked crusts.
  6. Evenly spoon the seasoned ground beef over the sauce and layer assorted vegetables. Top with shredded mild cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
  7. Bake the topped pizza for 10-12 minutes until cheese is bubbly and crust is golden brown.
  8. Let cool slightly before slicing and enjoy warm with sides like salad or veggie sticks.
