User:Edward L. Lynn/Taco Pizza

The most famous and enduring recipe by American pizza pioneer Wayne Lynn, the Taco Pizza was originally called a Burrito Pizza, and only renamed the Taco Pizza after market research conducted by Mr. Lynn's firm, New Concept Delis, revealed the Taco Pizza title was more popular. Taco Pizza starts with a crust smeared with a thin layer of refried beans, topped with ground beef, and sprinkled with enchilada sauce or salsa before baking. After baking, the pizza is topped with a thin layer of crushed tortilla chips, then a layer of fresh, crisp and cool shredded iceberg lettuce, and then sprinkled with diced tomatoes and chilis, and enchilada sauce, or salsa.

The Taco Pizza was easily Mr. Lynn's most successful original pizza recipe, and has been widely copied by restaurants as well as delis and manufacturers of frozen pizzas for many years, mostly without any compensation to Mr. Lynn. Today, it can be found in restaurants and stores around the world.
