Instructions
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar. In a separate bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat Oven and Prepare the Base
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Roll out the dough into a large circle or rectangle (depending on your pan). Place on a greased baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread the taco sauce evenly over the dough.
Add Cheese and Protein
Sprinkle a generous layer of mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Add the seasoned ground beef and black beans evenly across the surface.
Bake the Pizza
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Add Fresh Toppings
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Add shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, black olives, shredded lettuce, and cilantro. Drizzle with sour cream if desired.

You can use store-bought pizza dough for convenience.
Substitute ground beef with chicken, turkey, or vegetarian crumbles for variety.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
Add jalapeños or hot sauce for an extra kick.
