How To Make sombrero pizza

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 500ºF.
  • Step 2
    In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and when hot, add onions and jalapeño peppers; sauté for 2 minutes. Add ground beef and season with ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook half way breaking down the meat into small pieces. Add 2 tbsp. taco seasoning, oregano, cumin and red pepper flakes; stir and cook until the meat is no longer pink. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Step 3
    In a bowl, combine refried beans, salsa and the remaining 1 tbsp. taco seasoning; stir well.
  • Step 4
    To assemble the pizza, divide and spread the refried bean mixture on the 2 pizza doughs as well as beef mixture, leaving about ½ inch around the edge. Add ¾ cup each of white and yellow cheese per pie.
  • Step 5
    Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheeses are melted.
  • Step 6
    Remove from the heat and divide iceberg lettuce and tomatoes between the two pizzas. Add a ¼ cup of white and yellow cheese per pie and then divide the cilantro between the two pizzas. Drizzle on the ranch dressing. Makes two pizzas
