You haven't had Mexican Pizza until you've had it on a 100% cheddar cheese crust. Totally grain-free and low carb!

- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika

- 1/2 tsp. pink Himalayan salt
- 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp. onion powder
Pizza
- 1/2 cup four cheese mexican blend (this blend will keep it from sticking to the pan)
- 3/4 cup chredded cheddar cheese

- salsa
- shredded lettuce
- pico de gallo
- shredded cheddar cheese
- dollops of sour cream
- guacamole

Taco Meat
- Brown ground beef in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1/4 cup water and dry taco meat ingredients.
- Simmer on low for five minutes and set aside.
Pizza
- Heat skillet to medium heat and add about 2 tbsp olive oil
- Once hot, and very quickly, add mexican blend first to the pan, then the cheddar on top.
- Using a silicon spatula to form the edges into a circle
- Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the cheese easily lifts with a spatula.
- Use your spatula to lift the edges of the pizza from the pan, going around the edges until the whole crust could easily slide out.
- Slide out your pizza onto a plate and let cool.
Top the Pizza
- Top your pizza in the following order: salsa, taco meat, shredded lettuce, pico de gallo, shredded cheddar cheese, dollops of sour cream and guacamole, then shake some hot sauce over the top.
- Cut into fours and enjoy!
You can use 100% of either mexican blend or cheddar, here's how it will differ
- - 100% mexican blend won't stick to the pan, but it will have a more mild flavor.
- - 100% cheddar will stick to the pan a little more (be patient and wait until it's ready and comes up easy) - but it tastes totally awesome, like a cheez-it!
