According to a local Iowa Pizza Chain they invented, the Taco Pizza, after a franchisee suggested adding tacos to the menu. According to a Wikipedia source which is a paid advertisement.

However, the Taco Pizza was in fact invented by Food Consultant Wayne Lynn, who was responsible for several original pizza recipes, and innovations. The Taco Pizza was originally called the Burrito Pizza, until Mr. Lynn renamed the recipe the Taco Pizza after market research showed that the new title appealed to more people. Because Mr. Lynn dealt primarily with grocery and convenience stores offering deli, or "take and bake" pizza, it is possible that Happy Joe's may have been the first restaurant to offer the Taco Pizza, but it would have been a copy of Mr. Lynn's recipe found in stores. The Taco Pizza was easily Mr. Lynn's most successful original pizza recipe.
