Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Flour tortillas
- 0.5 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 can (16 oz) Refried beans
- 1.5 cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Sliced black olives
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
- 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a separate small saucepan, warm the refried beans over low heat until spreadable.
Brush both sides of each tortilla with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 5-6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
Carefully remove the tortillas from the oven. Spread a layer of refried beans on each tortilla, followed by seasoned ground beef.
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded Mexican cheese on top, and drizzle with salsa.
Return the pizzas to the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before adding toppings.
Top each pizza with sliced black olives, chopped green onions, diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream.
Slice into quarters and serve immediately. Enjoy your Easy Mexican Pizza!
