Delicious and easy Blackstone Queso Mexican Pizzas made with seasoned taco meat, mini naan breads, taco sauce, and melted Mexican blend cheese, topped with creamy salsa con queso and optional fresh toppings like crumbled queso fresco and chopped tomatoes. Perfect for a quick and flavorful meal cooked on a griddle or stovetop.

Ingredients

Taco Meat

  • 1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
  • 1 packet low sodium taco seasoning
  • Water (as needed for seasoning)

Pizzas

  • 8-12 mini naan breads (depending on size)
  • Taco sauce (to spread on naan breads)
  • Mexican blend cheese (to taste)
  • 1 cup salsa con queso (for drizzling)
  • Crumbled queso fresco (optional, for topping)
  • Chopped tomatoes (optional, for topping)
  • Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Cook the taco meat: Heat your Blackstone griddle or skillet to medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook until mostly browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Once nearly cooked through, sprinkle the low sodium taco seasoning over the meat and pour in water according to seasoning packet instructions. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for several minutes until fully cooked and flavorful.
  2. Prepare naan breads: On the low heat side of the griddle, place the mini naan breads. Spread a layer of taco sauce over each naan. Sprinkle some Mexican blend cheese over the sauce, then add a generous spoonful of the seasoned taco meat on top of each.
  3. Heat and melt toppings: Reduce the griddle temperature or turn off the burner underneath to avoid burning the naan bottoms. Drizzle salsa con queso over the meat, and sprinkle crumbled queso fresco on top if using. Allow the pizzas to heat until the cheese melts and naan is slightly toasted.
  4. Optional oven method: If using stovetop instead of a griddle, cook and season the taco meat in a skillet as above, then drain excess fat. Place mini naan breads on a baking sheet, spread with taco sauce, cheese, and meat, then bake in an oven preheated to 350°F for about 10 minutes or until cheese melts and naan is toasted. Alternatively, use the broiler for a quicker melt.
  5. Final toppings and serve: Remove pizzas from heat. Add optional toppings like chopped tomatoes and sour cream to taste. Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful Blackstone Queso Mexican Pizzas!

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey for a leaner option without sacrificing flavor.
  • If mini naan breads are not available, small tortillas or pita breads can be used as a substitute.
  • Adjust the amount of salsa con queso and taco sauce according to your preference for creaminess and spice.
  • Use low sodium taco seasoning to control the salt content.
  • These pizzas can be customized with other toppings like jalapeños, olives, or avocado for extra flavor.
