Ingredients
Pickled Onions
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place the sheet of puff pastry on the baking sheet. Pierce the pastry a few times all over with a fork.
- Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add in the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Season it with cumin, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir well, continuing to break apart the meat into small crumbles. Cook until the turkey has browned completely. Turn off the heat.
- Spread the refried beans on the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Top with the grated cheddar cheese. Top with the taco meat, making sure it&rsquo,s evenly distributed over the pastry. Don&rsquo,t pile it in the center or it won&rsquo,t bake through! Drizzle with the taco sauce/salsa. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown on the edges and puffed. Remove from the oven and add shredded lettuce, tomatoes, pickled onions and cotija cheese. Drizzle on extra taco sauce or salsa if you&rsquo,d like! Slice and serve!
- Place the onions in a jar or cup. In a bowl, whisk together the warm water, sugar and salt until the sugar and salt dissolve. Whisk in the vinegar. Pour over the sliced onions. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

If you do not have a puff pastry sheet, refrigerator thin crust pizza will work. adapted from howsweeteats.com
