Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ cup onion diced
- 3 tablespoons taco seasoning divided
- ½ cup water
- 8 Flour Tortillas (8-inch)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 16 ounces refried beans
- 1 cup enchilada sauce
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- Your favorite toppings: fresh tomatoes, black olives, green onion, sour cream, etc.
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef and cook until it begins to brown.
- Add onions to skillet and continue to cook until meat is cooked through.
- Drain any excess grease from the meat and return to skillet before adding 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning and ¼ cup of water. Continue to cook, stirring together, until water cooks away. Set taco meat aside.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Cook each tortilla until it begins to crisp slightly, approximately 1-2 minutes per side. Set the cooked tortillas aside. After the first 4 tortillas add the second tablespoon of vegetable oil and continue cooking.
- In a bowl combine refried beans and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning. Stir until well combined.
- Place 4 tortillas on your baking sheet and add one layer of refried beans, and one layer of taco meat to each tortilla. See note below.
- Place a tortilla on top of each and spread enchilada sauce over the tops of the tortillas. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, until cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and top with your favorite fresh ingredients.
- Cut each pizza into 4 slices and serve.

Notes
- Note: Most likely only 2 Mexican Pizzas will fit side-by-side on your baking sheet, so you will have to bake these in batches, two at a time.
