Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork*
• 1 (1.25-oz.) package 40%-less-sodium taco seasoning mix
• 2/3 cup water
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 (11-oz.) can Mexican-style corn, rinsed and drained
• 1 (10-oz.) can mild diced tomatoes and green chiles

• 1 (16-oz.) can fat-free refried beans

Preparation

1. 1. Cook pork in a large skillet over medium-high heat 5 minutes, stirring until meat crumbles and is no longer pink; drain well on paper towels. Wipe out skillet with a paper towel. Return pork to skillet; stir in taco seasoning mix and 2/3 cup water; cook according to package directions on seasoning mix. Remove mixture from heat, and stir in chopped cilantro and next 3 ingredients.
2. 2. Place pizza crusts on baking sheets. Spread half of beans evenly over each crust, leaving a 1/4-inch border around edges. Top beans evenly with pork mixture.
3. 3. Bake, 1 pizza at a time, at 400° for 8 to 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated and cheese melts. Remove from oven, and let stand 5 minutes. Serve with desired toppings.
4. *1 lb. ground chuck may be substituted for ground pork.
