This Taco Salad Pizza is so simple, packed with flavor and a great way to use what's fresh at the farmers market and in our garden. I start by making homemade pizza dough or buying premade dough. Grab your kids and get them involved because playing with dough is fun! You can make this pizza in a pizza pan or a cast-iron skillet for a thick crust or you can stretch the dough onto a baking sheet for a thinner crust. Either way it's totally delectable.

Ingredients

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with olive oil and stretch the dough to fit the size of the baking sheet (about 16 by 11 inches). Alternatively, you can press it into a large circular pizza pan or 12- to 15-inch cast-iron skillet.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the refried beans and salsa until thoroughly combined. Spread on top of the pizza dough and sprinkle with the cheese.
- Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly, 18 to 20 minutes.
- While the pizza is baking, heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the 1 tablespoon olive oil, the plant-based meat, red onion, taco seasoning and salt. Cook, breaking apart the meat with a spatula, until browned and the moisture has evaporated, about 12 minutes.
- When the pizza has finished baking, top it with the plant-based meat, lettuce, avocado, sour cream, cilantro and other desired toppings.
Cook’s Note
Don't have any plant-based meat on hand and really need your ground beef or turkey fix? Don't worry, you can use that too! Want to make it vegan? You can substitute plant-based cheese and sour cream, too. The point is to take the base of this Taco Salad Pizza and make it your own.
