My wife is born and raised in Tampa Bay. She had no idea what Taco Pizza was till she met me. On our first visit to Iowa together we get Casey’s Taco Pizza. She demands we get it every time we go back lol.
 
Was back in CR last weekend for the holidays and was very much looking forward to getting some Happy Joes taco pizza as I always do when I’m back in town. I was distraught to learn that the Hiawatha Happy Joes near my parents house had closed! I love that stuff.
 
A good taco pizza is great. A bad one is barf.

So a friend of mine (probably told this story before) had a super bowl party. He ordered a taco pizza and it was delivered with a bag of lettuce and a bag of chips. I tend to to think that is the spiraling of his way to prison a few years later.
 
We make our own and do the creamy refried beans fairly light, light salsa, and some nacho cheese sauce as the base. Freaking delicious. I like it with our local sausage companies chorizo but the no pic likes seasoned ground beef so we normally do that. Really good chorizo is amazing but the grease bomb bad chorizo is terrible
 
CSB time.
We got Pizza Ranch taco pizza tonight. My oldest is a freshman in college and is dating a girl from New Orleans, he sent her a pic of the pizza and she was completely dumbfounded. She had never heard of such a thing and said it looked gross. If she only knew how wrong she is.
