Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef
1 taco seasoning packet or homemade
½ cup water
8 small taco size tortillas (6 inch)
nonstick spray
16 oz. refried beans
1 cup red enchilada sauce or homemade
½ cup taco sauce
8 oz. shredded Mexican cheese
¼ cup diced tomatoes
2.25 oz. can sliced black olives
parsley optional, for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Brown your ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the grease from the meat. Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Cook until the sauce has formed.
Spray both sides of the tortillas with nonstick cooking spray. Warm a skillet or griddle to medium heat and cook each side of the tortillas until golden brown. Allow them to cool completely.
Place your beans in a microwave-safe container and heat them until they have warmed and loosened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Spread a layer of beans onto a tortilla and top it with a quarter of the ground beef. Place another tortilla on top.
Combine the enchilada sauce and taco sauce in a small mixing bowl.
Spread a few spoonfuls of the enchilada sauce onto the tortilla. Sprinkle the top with cheese.
Repeat this with the remaining tortillas.
Place it in the oven until the cheese is bubbly, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Top each pizza with tomatoes, olives, and parsley (optional). Cut into quarters and enjoy.
