Mexican Pizza
Mexican Pizza

These pizzas are really so simple and just fun. Just a great snack for lunch or a night time supper and your kids will love this. There’s nothing authentic about these though; they are more TexMex. Tortillas, beans, taco meat, taco sauce, lots of cheese how can you go wrong? And they take minutes to make!

I had actually forgotten that I had this in my blog recipes to post until I ran across it while I was looking at photos! I just love these.

I used flour tortillas, but you can use corn if you like. I used Hatch Red chile Enchilada sauce and Taco Bell taco seasoning. See how easy this is? Oh, and of course lots of cheddar cheese! I had refried beans in my freezer, but you can buy canned. This is the price for six cans https://amzn.to/2BNKpk0

Here is the seasoning mix I used: https://amzn.to/2CZUPxL

So, again, this is just a simple little snack to throw together with store bought ingredients. Here’s another pizza I think you will love! easy sausage and pepperoni pizza – frozen cheese pizza upgrade

Cuisine American, Mexican
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 pack taco seasoning
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying the tortillas
  • 8 taco size flour tortillas (I like to use the flour tortillas that are packaged but have not been cooked)
  • 1 15 oz can refried beans or homemade
  • 1 10 oz can enchilada sauce
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar, monterrey jack or a blend

Toppings

  • diced tomatoes
  • sliced green onions
  • shredded lettuce
  • sliced olives, optional
  • sliced avocados

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400f.
    In a large skillet, brown and and crumble the ground beef
    .Drain excess grease. Place cooked beef back in skillet and add taco seasoning packet and water and stir. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until thickened.
    In a large skillet, heat up oil over medium heat. Add tortillas (one at a time) and cook for 3-4 minutes (flipping frequently) until crisp. Continue with the rest of the tortillas. Set aside
    .Meanwhile, heat up the refried beans in a microwaveable-safe bowl. This will make it easier to spread the beans onto the tortilla shells.
    On each tortilla, slather a generous layer of refried beans. Then top with seasoned ground beef.
    Place another tortilla on top. Slather about two tablespoons of the enchilada sauce on top. Then place some shredded cheese on top of the sauce. Continue assembling the rest of the pizzas.
    Place the pizzas on a large nonstick baking sheet and bake for about 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted. Serve with your favorite toppings!
