1 pizza crust
1/2 cup picante sauce, see below
1/2 cup refried beans
1/2 lb ground beef browned and drained
1 cup Mozzarella cheese shredded
1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
1 cup Taco chips
1 small tomato diced
1 cup iceberg lettuce shredded
3 tbsp sour cream
Picante Sauce
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup coarsely chopped onion
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and halved
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 garlic clove, halved
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon grated lime zest
5 drops hot pepper sauce

1️⃣ Heat Things Up
Crank the oven to 375º (follow your dough’s vibe). Lightly spray a pizza pan, press that crust into a circle, and par-bake for 5 minutes until just set.

2️⃣ Brown the Goods
While the crust warms up, brown the ground beef and drain. No soggy situations here.

3️⃣ Make the Sauce (Taco Edition)
Stir ½ cup salsa + ½ cup refried beans into a thick, scoopable spread. This is your pizza sauce now. 🌶️

4️⃣ Prep the Toppings
Grate the mozz and cheddar, lightly crush the taco chips, dice the tomato, and shred the lettuce. Mise en place, but make it spicy.

5️⃣ Assemble the Magic
Pull the crust, spread on the bean mixture, then layer beef, mozzarella, cheddar, and a handful of crushed chips. Go generous. Always.

6️⃣ Bake + Broil
Bake at 375º for 5–7 minutes, then switch to low broil for 2–3 minutes until the cheese bubbles and the crust turns golden.

7️⃣ Finish Strong
Out of the oven, hit it with more chips, fresh tomato, shredded lettuce, and a bold drizzle of sour cream.

Slice it up, grab a napkin, and prepare for chaos in the best way. 🌮🍕🔥
