Mini Taco Pizzas
Mini Taco Pizzas make a perfect throw together dinner! These are ideal for those challenging times when one must decide if they want tacos or pizza; now you can have them both in just a few steps!
I have been on a taco kick lately! I swear we have been having tacos 2 times a week for 2 months now. My family is starting to get a little weary of the constant offering of chicken tacos, traditional tacos or maybe my favorite, breakfast tacos!
I decided to change things up a little and combine a few favorites; fresh veggies, seasoned taco meat, and a cheese to create a hearty and easy dish that gave my family what they craved; pizza while still giving me that taco flavor I can't get enough of!
This recipe comes together easily. The hardest part is resisting the delicious aromas that will fill your house as they are baking!
Ingredients:
One can of jumbo biscuits
One pound of cooked ground beef, taco seasoned
4 ounces of cheese
Chopped Onion
Chopped Lettuce
Sliced Peppers
Tomatoes {optional}
Sour Cream {optional}
Taco Sauce {optional}
Directions:
Flatten the biscuits, so that they nearly triple in size.
Sprinkle a little cheese on each biscuit.
Top with Taco Meat and remaining cheese.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the biscuit crust is golden brown.
Top with peppers, lettuce, onion, tomato and sour cream, then serve.
This recipe makes 8 pizzas.

Fried Beef Rolls
Fried Beef Rolls are an awesome afternoon snack, appetizer, or lunch! These are so easy to make that they are sure to become one of your favorite easy recipes!
I found a great deal on egg roll wrappers (25 cents a package!!) so I had to make something with them. A quick glance in my fridge and these are the ingredients I settled on.
- Slow Roasted Roast Beef
- Bacon Cheddar
- Egg Roll Wrappers
- Vegetable Oil
- Layer 2 slices of roast beef and one slice of cheese into an egg roll wrapper.
- "Tuck" the ends in, then roll the wrapper.
- Brush with water to seal.
- Repeat as desired for additional fried beef rolls
- Heat 1 to 2 cups of vegetable oil in a medium size pot over medium heat, then drop the beef rolls into the oil carefully.
- Allow to cook for about 3 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown, then turn and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
- Allow to drain on paper towels to reduce the grease.
After I made a few with beef and cheese, and my family declared them delicious. I tried adding a pickle to the center. It was awesome and reminded me of Cuban sandwiches in a way.
