Two family favorites in one.
Ready for an easy family dinner ideas?
Let’s take a quick poll. Whose family thinks Taco Night is the absolute best? And whose family thinks you can’t beat Pizza Night?
Hmm, pretty even split there. Sounds like tacos and pizza are two family dinners that can’t miss.
But you want to know what’s an even more sure-fire hit? A dinner that’s both tacos and pizza.
My Easy Fiesta Taco Pizza has everything your family loves about tacos – the seasoned ground beef, the cheddar cheese, and all your favorite Mexican toppings. And it’s got everything they love about pizza – the crispy crust, yummy cheese, and tangy tomato. All in one hot, zesty, crunchy, flavor-filled package.
And it’s a favorite with cooks, too, because it’s easier to make than either dish on its own. Unlike pizza, it doesn’t need a homemade crust; you just use refrigerated crescent rolls that are easy to roll out and bake. And unlike tacos, it doesn’t have a zillion little pieces to mess with – shells, meat, cheese, and so on. It’s all one big slab that you just slice and serve.
With the best of pizza and the best of tacos in one, this Easy Fiesta Taco Pizza is bound to be everybody’s new favorite.

- In a bowl, mix together the sour cream and cream cheese until most of the lumps have disappeared.
- Spread the mixture onto the cooled crust.
- Put the cookie sheet into the fridge while you prepare the meat.
- Brown the meat and prepare it by using the instructions on your taco-seasoning packet.
- Take the pizza crust out of the fridge and spread the taco meat across the top. You will have some meat leftover.Then, add the cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and any other toppings you wish to use. Slice and serve!

This is a great recipe! The one thing I did different is put refried beans on the bottom layer. We let people add their own sour cream if they wanted it!! YUMMY!! Thanks for the idea!
