Instructions
- For the Crust, whisk water and olive oil in liquid measuring cup. Place flour, yeast and salt in food processor; pulse until well blended. With machine running, gradually add water mixture just until mixed and no dry flour remains in bowl, about 30 seconds. Process 1 minute longer until dough forms a ball.
- Transfer dough to lightly floured surface. Knead by hand about 30 seconds until dough is smooth, shaping into a ball. Transfer to a lightly greased bowl. Spray dough lightly with no stick cooking spray. Cover with plastic wrap. Place bowl in warm, draft-free place and allow dough to rise about 1 1/2 hours until puffy. Transfer to lightly greased sheet pan. Press and stretch dough into a rectangle about 15-inches long by 10-inches wide. Cover with plastic wrap. Place baking sheet in warm, draft-free place and allow dough to rise about 45 minutes longer.
- Meanwhile, for the taco meat, brown ground beef in large skillet on medium-high heat. Drain fat. Stir in Seasoning Mix, salsa and water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Gently stretch dough towards corners of sheet pan to return to original size before adding pizza toppings. Spoon meat mixture evenly over crust. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is lightly browned. Top with shredded lettuce and chopped tomato. Add additional toppings as desired, such as sliced jalapenos and sour cream.
Test Kitchen Tip: For easier prep, make pizza using a prepared 12-inch crust. Top crust as directed, and reduce bake time to 12 to 15 minutes or until cheese is melted.
