Ingredients

8 (6 inch) Mission® Fajita Flour Tortillas, cooked into crispy tortillas
1 cup refried beans, prepared
1 pound ground beef, chuck, raw
salt to taste
pepper to taste
4 tablespoons pizza sauce, prepared
1 cup Mexican Cheese Blend, grated, prepared
½ cup Roma tomato, fresh, small chop
4 teaspoons cilantro, fresh, rough chopped

Steps:

To make the Mission® Crispy Tortillas: Place all 8 tortillas directly on the oven rack of a 350 degrees 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 saute for 8 minutes in a non-stick pan, drain and reserve hot for the recipe build.
To build 1 Mexican Pizza: Place 1 crisp Mission® tortilla on work surface.
Evenly spread tortilla with 1/4 cup hot refried beans.
Evenly top refried beans with 1/4 (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 1/4 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 degrees 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 each pizza whole.
