How To Make polenta taco pizza

  • Step 1
    Bring vegetable stock to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add salt, cilantro, and grapeseed oil. Whisking continuously, pour in polenta and continue whisking until smooth and thick (about 4-7 minutes). Pour polenta into an 11x14 jelly roll pan sprayed with cooking spray. Spread evenly into pan. Place in refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until firm.
  • Step 2
    Brown ground beef (or ground turkey or ground chicken). Add taco seasoning according to package directions.
  • Step 3
    Preheat oven to 350. Take polenta from refrigerator and bake for 40 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Remove crust from oven. Spread refried beans over crust. Layer browned ground beef (or ground turkey or ground chicken) over the top of the refried beans. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese. Place back in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Remove from oven. Top with lettuce, shredded cheese, tomatoes, onions, crushed tortilla chips and whatever other toppings you would like to add. Serve with taco sauce and sour cream.
