The best thing about this recipe is the crust. It really did turn out so well. I will use the crust recipe in the future. My only complaint with the topping is that the dominant flavor of this dish is the taco seasoning packet which just isn't my favorite. You must really enjoy the flavor of packaged taco seasoning mix to like the finished product here. I think it would be far better to follow the recipe and substitute your own spices (chili powder, cumin, garlic, a little oregano, etc.)

This is a great recipe. I cut the time in half by using pre-made pizza crust. After baking the pizzas I topped them with shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes. I also doubled the hamburger to a pound. It was excellent!

Pretty good. A little messy with the beans and sauce, and my guests didn't gobble it up like with the bbq chicken pizza. Oh well, I liked it.

My husband and kids liked this very much. I wasn't 100% crazy about it...just can't put my finger on why I wasn't. I will try it again and see if it was just me that day, lol!

This ended up ok, but I am quite unhappy with the recipe as written. I thought there was way too much refried bean mixture; when I layered on as much as I wanted, there was still a lot left over. I didn't think there was enough meat; I would easily doubled the amount. There was also not enough taco seasoning; again, I would have doubled it. I also thought that it would benefit from some jarred sliced jalapenos (put them on Husband's half). I added more sliced onion to my side.

I thought this turned out really good! My family enjoyed it also. Sliced up very nice and kept its form:) The only complaint that I have(along with the rest of the family) is the sauce. There just seemed to be to much tomato paste. Next time I will cut this in half.

I love this recipe. I made this for company and they said that I couldn't make it again unless I was inviting them over. I could have cooked the crust a bit longer, but it was still an excellent recipe.

This pizza is awesome! I've made it several times. I now use pre-made thin crust, turkey hamburger and serve lettuce, tomato, black olives and sour cream on the side. Quick and easy and a big winner at the dinner table!

This was Terrific! Everyone in our family of 6 thought it ought to go on the Favorite Meals list (and it has already received requests to be made for birthday dinners though birthdays are a long way off at this point). I served it with the shredded lettuce, chopped tomato and sour cream, as suggested. Those really *made* the meal for my husband, oldest child and myself. The younger ones liked it "as is". This will be showing up a lot at our family's table, I can tell you!
