Mexican Pizza

By Chelsie Kenyon, About.com

Many cultures have enjoyed pizza over the years. Usually it is a baked dough crust topped with tomato sauce, cheese and a variety of toppings. Try this Mexican version for a unique spin on the average pizza.

This recipe is for a single serving, so adjust as needed.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 corn tortillas
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1/4 cup refried beans
  • 1/4 cup cheddar
  • 1/4 cup seasoned ground beef or chicken
  • 1 tablespoon green onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon taco sauce
  • 1/8 cup tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • dollop of sour cream

Preparation:

Heat oil in a small frying pan. Fry tortillas one at a time and drain on paper towels.

Spread 1/2 of the beans on each tortilla. Top one tortilla with the meat and put the other tortilla on top, bean side down, to sandwich the mixture inside the tortillas.

Spread the taco sauce on the top of the filled tortillas. Add the cheddar to the top and heat under a broiler until cheese is melted.

Sprinkle onions and tomatoes on the top of the melted cheese and serve with a dollop of sour cream.
