Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your baking sheet and allow the crescent rolls to come to room temperature.
  2. Unroll the crescent rolls onto your baking sheet, arranging them in a rectangle. Seal seams between triangles and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely on a cooling rack.
  4. While the crust cools, heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook ground beef until browned, then drain excess fat. Sprinkle taco seasoning and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, sour cream, and salsa until smooth.
  6. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust, then layer seasoned ground beef on top.
  7. Top the pizza with diced Roma tomatoes and shredded cheese. Layer with lettuce just before serving.
  8. Cut into squares or slices, serve warm, and enjoy the delicious blend of flavors.
