WE LOVED THIS PIZZA ANYTIME BUT LIKE TO CUT IT IN SMALL SQUARES FOR APPETIZERS. I WOULD DOUBLE THIS RECIPE FOR NEW YEARS EVE WITH THE FAMILY SITTING AROUND THE FIRE.

How To Make carol's mexican pizza

Step 1

PREHEAT OVEN TO 425 DEGREES

Step 2

AFTER DRAINING THE COOKED HAMBURGER, SPRINKLE AND STIR IN THE TACO SEASONING; SET ASIDE.
Step 3

GREASE A 9X13 BAKING DISH; SPRINKLE WITH THE CORNMEAL.

SPRINKE WITH 1/2 OF MEXICAN AND CHEDDAR CHEESES.

TOP IN ORDER: THE HAMBURG, ONIONS, BLACK OLIVES AND CHILES.

SPRINKLE ON THE REMAINING CHEESES.
Step 9

BAKE FOR 17-22 MINUTES OR UNTIL CRUST IS GOLDEN BROWN.

NOTE: THO NOT MEXICAN, I ALSO LIKE TO ADD A CAN OF SLICED MUSHROOMS [4 OZ], DRAINED. ALSO EXTRA CHEESE AT TIMES.
