Unfortunately this was done on a whim and with various leftovers so I don't have anything approaching a recipe for it, but I can tell you basically what I did.I had made the beef and beans some time ago and had a little bit leftover that I had frozen.
What it was was a couple pieces of seared steak tips that was leftover from something else (heh, this is like a third generation pizza) which I cut up into smaller chunks, then I tossed a can of beans (pinto, I believe and rinsed of course) a bit of chicken broth and some Mexican seasonings (cumin, cayenne, cilantro, oregano, garlic, onion, etc) in a pot and let it simmer for several hours, until the beef was shreddable. Then I shredded it and at the time we just scooped it up with tortillas.Like I said, I froze the bit that was leftover and one day decided to make a pizza out of it. To add a bit of something different I decided to dollop some sour cream on there and it worked out really well.
The little bursts of tangy sour cream went perfectly, although not surprisingly, with the spicy beans and beef and the whole thing just came together really well. While I can't give you a specific recipe (yet, that is) I strongly recommend trying out the concept, it was a lot of fun and wicked good.

You are a pizza king! The addition of sour cream makes this pizza so special and outstanding!
I'm intrigued by the combination of sour cream and beans on pizza. My hamster wheel in my head is turning now.
You're a rebel Bob, that's what you are!
You have put together some interesting flavor combinations. I would never have come up with this myself but, this looks delicious.
Looks just amazing...definitely giving Taco Bell a run for its money :)
Now that's my kind of pizza!
You always make first rate meals with leftovers.
Sounds perfectly normal to me ;) LOVE IT! So basically what you're telling me is that you can put any combo you like on top of pizza dough and it'll be good. I accept that. I embrace it. YUM!
We love a lot of pizza around here, too, and I love this idea. c
this is the best kind of pizza....throw together a few things that go well together and bam! Your taste buds are singing.
have i told you lately that you're the master of repurposing leftovers? this is phenomenal, and i'll be adding beans to my next pizza.
Um hello gorgeous. I've been loving homemade pizza lately and this Tex-Mex version sounds awesome! Way to think ahead and freeze your leftovers to use them up later!
I love this Tex-Mex Pizza. Sour Cream and beans are a natural together. Great use of leftovers.
This sounds good - in a crazy way! You should write a pizza cookbook! Serious. I'd buy it.
Great idea - the sour cream on top sounds perfect!
Far out, this looks delicious! By the way I really think your cats are adorable :)
Mmmm, so good, so good. Have you ever had cotija cheese? It's perfectly tasty. Try that on your pizza!
Interesting concepts, I love fearless experimentation!
