Godfather's Taco Pizza Recipe

Pizza and tacos combined? There’s no way this doesn’t end up being a favorite. Especially with Godfather's restaurant version.
The key to making it right is balancing the layers—seasoned beef, plenty of cheese, and just the right amount of fresh toppings.
I always let the beef simmer in taco seasoning for a few extra minutes to deepen the flavor before spreading it over the crust.
Melting the cheese before adding lettuce and tomatoes keeps everything in place, so every bite has the right mix of warm and cool.
A handful of crushed tortilla chips on top brings in the crunch that makes this pizza unforgettable.
