Here's what Happy Feet did during our making of the pizza

Red Shoes decided cooking was hard work and he needed to rest! 

Back to supper...crust is out of the oven.  Not perfect, but it will work!

Spread one cup of salsa onto the baked crust (I know we're kind of messy)

Pile on the fajita mixture and cheese(s). Bake at 425 degrees for 14-18 minutes, or until crust is golden and cheese is melted.

Here's what our pizza looked like when it came out of the oven.  It was a delicious pizza, and we had fun making it together.  Thanks for your help Red Shoes!
