LOW CALORIE TACO PIZZA



Low Calorie Taco Pizza image

This is a scrumptious version of a much higher calorie, higher fat pizza. My husband and I love taco pizza, but we are health nuts and do not like eating high fat foods. We decided to experiment with a few ingredients, and we feel the result was phenomenal. The key to this recipe is to season the meat to your taste. Serve with a side salad and enjoy.
