1cupMexican style shredded cheese or cheddar cheese
1tomatodiced
2cupschopped Romaine lettuce
Optional: Salsa and sour cream for serving
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 375°F.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and chopped onion over medium heat and cook until soft. Add in the ground beef and cook until brown. Add in ½ cup of water and the taco seasoning, and mix until well combined. Reduce heat to low and simmer for another 5 minutes.
Place pizza dough onto the parchment paper and roll it out so it measures approximately 10x15. Using a pizza cutter, makes slices that are about 1 ½ inches thick down each side of the dough.
Place the cooked ground beef down the center of the dough and top with ¾ cup of cheese and tomato.
Start to close up the dough by braiding it at one end of the dough. Fold the end up and wrap the first two slices over to seal up the end. Repeat the braiding with opposite slices until 2 remain and then wrap the last slices up to secure the other end.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the dough.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and allow to cool a few minutes. Before serving, cover with chopped lettuce, and additional tomato if desired. Optional: Top with sour cream and salsa and enjoy!
