Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mexican Fiestada School Lunch Idea.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a sizzling 450°F (230°C) to get it ready for some deliciousness.
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Toss in the ground beef along with your favorite taco seasoning, cooking it until it’s beautifully browned and crumbly—this should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 4
Don’t forget to drain any excess grease to keep your pizza light and tasty.
Step 5
Next, take your pizza dough and divide it in half.
Step 6
Roll each half out into a thin, inviting crust, then place them on a nonstick baking sheet, ready for their moment in the oven.
Step 7
Pop the crusts into the preheated oven for just 3 minutes to give them a head start.
Step 8
While they’re baking, mix together the pizza sauce, a dash of ground cumin, and a pinch of salt in a bowl—this will add a lovely depth of flavor.
Step 9
Once the crusts are out of the oven, spread half of your sauce mixture over each one, making sure to cover every inch.
Step 10
Now, it’s time to sprinkle the cooked beef and a generous amount of shredded Cheddar cheese on top, creating a mouthwatering layer of goodness.
Step 11
Slide the baking sheet back into the oven and let it bake for another 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is perfectly melted and the crusts are delightfully crispy.
Step 12
Your homemade taco pizza is almost ready to be devoured—enjoy every bite!.
