Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- ¾ cup water
- 1 can (15 oz) refried beans
- 1 can (10 oz) enchilada sauce
- ¼ cup diced tomatoes
- 1 ½ cups shredded Colby Jack cheese
- 8 flour tortillas (taco size)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200°C).
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until cooked through. Break it into small pieces as it cooks. Add taco seasoning and water. Stir well and simmer until most liquid is absorbed.
- In another skillet or griddle, heat half of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for 4-5 minutes, flipping frequently until crisp and lightly browned. Repeat with remaining tortillas, adding more oil as needed.
- On a baking sheet, place 4 of the crisped tortillas. Spread 1/4 cup refried beans over each tortilla. Top with cooked taco meat. Place another tortilla over the meat. Spread 2 tablespoons enchilada sauce over each tortilla. Divide diced tomatoes evenly. Sprinkle shredded Colby Jack cheese over each pizza.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly, and pizzas are heated through.
- Remove from oven, slice each pizza into quarters, and serve hot.
