This fajita seasoning is amazing. I use it on almost everything now. This pizza is delicious and spicy and just plain wonderful. Can be served with sour cream and/or extra salsa for dipping. The cayenne makes the seasoning hot, as does the black pepper, so take care if spicy food is not your thing.
