This easy Mexican Pizza recipe is a copycat version of the Taco Bell pizza I used to order all the time. Made with tortillas, refried beans, enchilada sauce, and cheese. This is pizza night meets taco night and a great switch up to Taco Tuesday.

TACO BELL MEXICAN PIZZA COPYCAT

I spent most of my high school days eating Taco Bell because it was inexpensive and tasty. I haven’t been in a while. A long while. The taste is still burned in my mind though and this homemade Mexican pizza tastes just like a Taco Bell copycat.

INGREDIENTS

  • FLOUR TORTILLAS – Some versions use corn tortillas and you can too but I like use small flour tortillas.
  • TACO MEAT – You can use leftover taco meat or make your own with seasoned ground beef or even ground turkey and taco seasoning.
  • REFRIED BEANS – A layer of refried beans holds the tortillas together and give it that classic flavor. You could even use black refried beans.
  • CAN OF RED ENCHILADA SAUCE – This is the sauce and has tons of flavor.
  • MEXICAN CHEESE BLEND – Any cheddar cheese will do.
  • TOMATOES – These add a bright fresh flavor.
  • BLACK OLIVES
  • TACO SAUCE – They sell Taco Bell’s taco sauce at most stores and it definitely makes it authentic.
  • TOPPINGS: Add your favorite taco toppings here. Taco sauce, a dollop of sour cream, red onion, fresh cilantro, or pico de gallo.
