Inspired by Tex-Mex fare, this meat lovers pizza is loaded with zesty avocado, crunchy corn chips and mild tomato salsa.
Ingredients
- 200g lean beef mince
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Large pinch of cayenne pepper
- 1 avocado, halved, stone removed, peeled
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 tomatoes, cut into 1cm pieces
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander
- 1 McCain frozen pizza base (see note)
- 70g Leggo's Pizza Sauce
- 60g Mainland coarsely grated cheddar
- 80g (1/3 cup) refried beans
- 50g corn chips
- Light sour cream, to serve
- Fresh coriander leaves, to serve
Method
- Step 1Preheat a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the mince and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up any lumps, for 4 minutes or until browned. Stir in the cumin and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Step 2Place the avocado and lime juice in a small bowl. Use a fork to coarsely mash. Combine the tomato and coriander in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 3Preheat oven to 220°C. Place the frozen pizza base on a baking tray. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the base. Sprinkle with the cheddar. Top with the mince mixture. Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheddar melts and the base is crisp and golden.
- Step 4Spoon the refried beans onto the centre of the pizza. Top with the avocado mixture and corn chips. Spoon over the tomato mixture. Top with a dollop of sour cream and the coriander leaves. Serve immediately.
