Mexican Chorizo Pizza

Only five ingredients to this pizza that is perfect for Taco Tuesday!

Taco Tuesday can have pizza now too! This pizza is super simple and consists of crust, sauce, cheese, onion, and chorizo. Which makes it the best kind of pizza because it doesn't have to take a lot of effort or ingredients to make a delicious meal. You could absolutely adapt this recipe - maybe dip your slices in guacamole or add diced tomatoes and jalapenos - the sky is the limit. It is simply wonderful just the way it is. You can buy a premade crust or use pizza dough (homemade or store bought).
