How to make it

Heat oil in saucepan set over medium-heat; cook beef for 5 to 7 minutes until no longer pink. Drain fat from pan.
Add onion, garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper to pan; cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes, or until onion is softened. Let cool.
On lightly floured surface, roll out dough into 12-inch (25 cm) round; fit into 12-inch (25 cm) pizza pan. Spread salsa over dough; top with beef mixture and cheese.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Immediately scatter lettuce, tomato, olives and green onions over top.
Sprinkle with crumbled chips. Dollop sour cream over top (if using).

Tip: For a spicy kick to your pizza, add pickled jalapeño peppers.
