Mini Taco Pizzas

I love tacos so I knew I would like this recipe. It was easy and so tasty. I love to have Krew help me out with dinner as much a possible and this was perfect for that because he could add any of the toppings he wanted!

3. Put the refried beans in a small pot over medium heat until warmed through.
4. Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each out into an individual pizza. Top each with 1/4 cup of the refried beans, 1/4 of the beef mixture, then top with 1/4 of the cheddar cheese.
5. Cook in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or according to the pizza dough directions.
