My Mom told me I really messed up making this for her because she will never order another taco pizza again! This dish is time consuming to prepare but soooo good. The corn and Catalina give it just a touch of sweet with the savory, the flavors are multi dimensional. I prepared this for New Years Eve as appetizer and have made it for supper several times. Hope you all enjoy this!
