Description

A delicious and easy-to-make Homemade Mexican Pizza, packed with flavorful seasoned beef, creamy refried beans, melted cheese, and fresh toppings. Perfect for a family dinner or a fun weekend meal!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 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

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray two baking sheets with non-stick spray. Place 3 tortillas on each sheet.
  • Bake the tortillas for 3-5 minutes, flip them, and bake for another 2-5 minutes until golden and crispy. Set aside.
  • In a skillet, cook and crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain the grease.
  • Add taco seasoning and water to the beef, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 10 minutes and set aside.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, warm the refried beans. Spread a thin layer of beans on one tortilla.
  • Top with 1/3 of the meat mixture, then place another tortilla on top.
  • Spread 3 tablespoons of enchilada sauce on the top tortilla. Sprinkle with cheddar and pepper-jack cheese. Add diced tomato, green onion, and sliced black olives.
  • Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas to create three pizzas in total.
  • Bake the pizzas for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Allow them to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can swap ground beef with shredded chicken or black beans for a vegetarian version.
  • For a spicier kick, add jalapeños or use a spicy enchilada sauce.
  • Serve with sour cream, guacamole, or salsa for extra flavor.
