Step-by-Step Directions
Preparation
Prepare the Ground Beef:
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and a small amount of water (as directed on the seasoning packet). Simmer for a few minutes until well combined and heated through.
Prepare the Tortillas:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the flour tortillas on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, or until they start to get crispy. Remove from the oven.
Assembly
Layer the Beans and Beef:
Spread a thin layer of refried beans over each tortilla. Top with the seasoned ground beef.
Add the Cheese:
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded Mexican blend cheese over the beef and beans.
Bake the Pizzas:
Return the tortillas to the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Topping and Serving
Add Fresh Toppings:
Remove the pizzas from the oven and top with salsa, black olives, green onions, diced tomatoes, and chopped cilantro.
Serve:
Slice the pizzas into wedges and serve hot with a dollop of sour cream and guacamole on the side.
