This Tex-Mex pizza, inspired by the beloved Taco Bell menu item, is loaded up with fresh ingredients and bold flavor. Our copycat version has all the signature elements of the fast-food favorite, just bigger and beefier than ever. Skip the drive-thru and give our homemade spin a try for a fun and easy weeknight meal. Add any additional garnishes you like (such as jalapeños, sour cream, or diced avocado).

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 8 flours tortillas , 8 inch
  • 1 cup refried beans , warmed
  • 1 cup cooked , Mexican-seasoned ground beef
  • 0.5 cups taco sauce
  • 0.25 cups red enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 0.5 cups diced tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons sliced black olives
  • 3 tablespoons chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a deep skillet over high heat. Pan-fry each tortilla turning frequently, adding more oil as needed, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Allow to drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  3. 3

    To assemble each pizza, place 4 fried tortillas on a baking sheet. Spread 3 tablespoons of refried beans evenly on top of every other tortilla, then add 2 to 3 tablespoons ground beef. Place the other 4 tortillas on top.

  4. 4

    Mix together the taco sauce and enchilada sauce in a small bowl. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the mixture on top of the tortillas and spread evenly. Sprinkle ¼ cup of each type of cheese evenly on top.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with diced tomatoes, black olives, green onions, and any additional garnishes. Cut into quarters, and serve immediately.
