How To Make mexican pizza

Step 1

In a Dutch Oven or heavy skillet heat 1/2 inch oil to 350-375 degrees. Add one tortilla at a time and fry until crispy (about 1 minute) flipping halfway through the frying process. Remove to paper towels to drain.

Step 2

Meanwhile in a large skillet brown ground beef; breaking it up as it browns. Halfway through the browning process add the chopped onion. Once the ground beef is full browned and onions have softened add the taco seasoning and water. Simmer 10 minutes.
Step 3

Spread refried beans over 6 corn tortillas. Equally divide seasoned ground beef over the beans. Top with half of each cheese. Top each with another crispy corn tortilla and place on parchment paper covered baking sheets. Top each pizza with remaining cheese, sliced tomatoes, jalapeno, black olives and green onions.
Step 4

Bake at 400 degrees for 7-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
