Ingredients
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 and 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.
