Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
If using a pizza stone, preheat it in the oven as well.

Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned.
Drain any excess fat, then add the taco seasoning and water.
Stir well and simmer for 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens. Set aside.

Step 3: Prepare the Pizza Dough
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired size.
Place the dough on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
If using store-bought dough, follow the package instructions for pre-baking if necessary.

Step 4: Assemble the Pizza
Spread a thin layer of salsa or taco sauce on the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Evenly distribute the taco-seasoned ground beef over the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top of the beef.

Step 5: Bake the Pizza
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.

Step 6: Add Fresh Toppings
Once the pizza is baked, remove it from the oven.
Top with diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, diced red onion, and sliced black olives.
Optional: Garnish with sour cream, jalapeños, cilantro, or crumbled tortilla chips for added crunch.

Step 7: Slice and Serve
Slice the pizza and serve immediately. Enjoy your taco-inspired pizza!
