Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza

Made with a Cholula Hot Sauce pizza sauce, this homemade Mexican Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza is a tasty and easy meal for any day of the week.
This is not the first pizza recipe here, but there are only a few. What is wrong with me? Oh wait, I remember. I don’t normally have the self control to make a pizza, take a ton of photos and THEN eat it. I usually just jump right in when it’s hot and fresh out the oven.
But not this time!
This time I summoned every ounce of willpower I had and I waited. I held off on eating this amazing Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza right away just so I could share it with you. And I know you’ll love the results.
