Mexican Pizzas (Taco Bell Copycat Recipe)


Ingredients:

1 lb hamburger
1 package taco seasoning
12 flour tortillas
1 16 oz. can refried beans
1/2 C diced tomato
2/3 C mild picante sauce (Taco Bell sells their own brand or use your favorite)
1 C shredded monterey jack cheese
1 C shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 C chopped green onion
1/4 C sliced black olives
Cooking spray
*Lettuce & sour cream optional additional topping after baking

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Cook the hambruger and drain. Then add the taco seasoning.
3. While the hamburger is cooking spray both sides of tortilla shells with cooking spray. Place sprayed shells on a cookie sheet and bake in the oven until golden and crispy. I was able to fit 4 shells on a cookie sheet and put 2 sets of sheets in the oven at a time. If you notice any bubbles forming on the tortilla shell, pop them so that the shells will lay flat for the pizza toppings.
4. Stack your pizza by first spreading beans on one tortilla.
5. Next add taco meat on top of the bean layer, then the second tortilla.
6. Top the second tortilla with 2 T of picante sauce and spread it around as evenly as you can.
7. Add tomato, followed by cheese, then the green onions and olives.
8. Bake for 8-12 minutes
