Description
A delightful blend of Mexican flavors and traditional pizza elements, perfect for family gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1 pound of lean ground beef (or ground turkey/chicken)
- 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup water
- 6 medium flour tortillas
- 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
- 1 can (10 ounces) red enchilada sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded pepper-jack cheese
- 1 Roma tomato, diced
- 1 green onion, diced
- 1 small can sliced black olives
- Optional: jalapeños or avocado slices for an extra kick
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray two baking sheets with non-stick spray.
- Place three tortillas on each sheet and bake for 3-5 minutes. Flip and bake for another 2-5 minutes until golden and crispy. Set aside to cool.
- In a large skillet, cook and crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain any excess grease.
- Stir in the taco seasoning and 1/2 cup of water into the cooked beef. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, warm the refried beans for about 1 minute.
- Spread a thin layer of refried beans on a crispy tortilla, then add 1/3 of the seasoned beef mixture on top. Place a second tortilla on top.
- Spread 3 tablespoons of enchilada sauce on the top tortilla, then sprinkle with cheddar and pepper-jack cheese, diced tomatoes, green onions, and sliced olives.
- Repeat for remaining pizzas.
- Place the assembled pizzas in the oven for about 5 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
Try different types of tortillas like corn or whole wheat for added flavor. Experiment with toppings for a personalized touch.
