Directions
To make the Crispy Tortillas:
Place all 8 tortillas directly on the oven rack of a 350℉ (180℃) F oven and bake for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and reserve on your work surface.
Heat the 1 cup of refried beans for 1 minute in the microwave to get hot and reserve for the recipe build.
Season the ground beef with salt and pepper and sauté for 8 minutes in a non-stick pan, drain and reserve hot for the recipe build.
To build 1 Mexican Pizza:
Place 1 crisp tortilla on work surface. Evenly spread tortilla with ¼ cup hot refried beans. Evenly top refried beans with ¼ (approximately 4 ounces) of the cooked ground beef.
Top ground beef with second crisp tortilla and evenly spread 1 heaping tablespoon of pizza sauce over the tortilla.
Evenly top the pizza sauce with ¼ cup grated Mexican cheese blend and 2 tablespoons chopped tomatoes. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for remaining 3 servings.
Place all 4 pizzas, at one time, in 350℉ (180℃) F oven on a cookie pan/flat pan, and bake for 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon chopped cilantro evenly over the top of each pizza. Serve.
