Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 2 cans (8 oz each) crescent roll dough
• Non-stick cooking spray

For the Toppings:

• 1 lb (450g) ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning mix
• 2/3 cup (160ml) water
• 1 cup (240g) sour cream
• 2 cups (200g) shredded lettuce
• 2 medium tomatoes, diced
• 1 ½ cups (150g) shredded cheddar cheese
• Optional: Sliced black olives, diced jalapeños, or salsa

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Crust

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and arrange it on a baking sheet to form a large rectangle. Press the edges together to seal any gaps.
3. Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.

Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef

1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up into crumbles.
2. Drain excess grease and stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.

Step 3: Assemble the Pizza

1. Spread the sour cream evenly over the cooled crust as the base layer.
2. Add the cooked taco meat, spreading it evenly over the sour cream layer.
3. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

1. Slice the taco pizza into squares or rectangles and serve immediately.
2. Add optional toppings like black olives, jalapeños, or a drizzle of salsa for extra flavor.

Tips for Success

• For a crispier crust, bake the crescent dough on parchment paper.
• Use a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese for extra creaminess.
• Serve with guacamole or extra sour cream on the side for dipping.
