Makes:8 servings

1 pound lean ground beef
1 1/4 cups Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa
2 cups Original Bisquick® mix *
1/4 cup mild salsa-flavored or jalapeño-flavored processed cheese spread **
1/4 cup hot water
4 medium green onions, sliced (1/2 cup)
1 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese (4 ounces)

1. Heat oven to 375ºF. Grease large cookie sheet.
2. Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in salsa; remove from heat.
3. Stir Bisquick, cheese spread and hot water until soft dough forms. Turn dough onto surface dusted with Bisquick; roll in Bisquick to coat. Shape into ball; knead 5 times. Roll into 14-inch circle; place on cookie sheet.
4. Spread beef mixture over crust to within 2 inches of edge. Sprinkle with onions. Fold edge over beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese.
5. Bake 25 to 28 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.

Garnish the pizza with chopped tomato and shredded lettuce.
Substitution: Use the jalapeño-flavor process cheese spread if you prefer a spicier crust.

*We did bisquick from scratch that was half whole wheat flour. Yum!
*We didn't bother to buy cheese spread, we just used cheese, & some seasonings.

Note: If you think your salsa that you have is too spicy, I don't recommend using it in this recipe. It's just as spicy, if not more spicy. Yes, I am speaking from personal experience!
