Description

A delicious and fun dish that brings the flavors of Taco Bell right into your kitchen. Perfect for a quick dinner or a game day snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey/chicken)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or 2 Tbsp homemade blend)
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 8 small (6-inch) flour tortillas (or corn tortillas, lightly fried)
  • 1 can (15 oz) refried beans
  • 1/4 cup water (to thin beans slightly)
  • 1 cup red enchilada sauce (or mild taco sauce)
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese (or cheddar/monterey jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • Oil for frying (or cooking spray if baking)

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat, add the taco seasoning and water, and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
  2. Prepare the refried beans in a small saucepan with 1/4 cup of water until smooth.
  3. Crisp the tortillas by frying in oil for 1–2 minutes per side or baking at 400°F for 5–7 minutes.
  4. Assemble the pizza by placing one tortilla on a baking sheet, spreading a layer of warmed beans, seasoned meat, and topping with another tortilla and enchilada sauce, cheese, diced tomatoes, green onions, and olives.
  5. Bake the pizzas in a preheated oven at 400°F for 8–10 minutes until cheese is melted.
  6. Serve hot, sliced into quarters with optional toppings like sour cream or extra taco sauce.

Notes

Ensure tortillas are crispy for best texture. Customize toppings to your liking.
