Weekend Recipe Replay: Fiesta Taco Pizza
Every weekend, I like to keep it simple since most of the time is spent working on blogs and websites and studying for Anatomy II. This was a creation I came up with when I was becoming increasingly bored with basic tacos and bean burrito’s.
Fiesta Taco Pizza
This is the type of recipe that you go with the flow. However, I will let you know the ingredients you will need to basic yet, very savory recipe.
1 can of refried beans
1 lb of lean meat
Cheese sauce or shredded cheddar
Taco seasoning
1/2 cup water
Crushed red pepperr and chili powder for kick
Large Tortilla shells (5 qty)
Red Mexican Sauce or Salsa
Method
- Take one tortilla and spoon a heap of beans and cheese and spread it evenly.
- Place a tortilla on top and layer cheese and beef.
- Place another tortilla on top and spoon onions, tomato, or jalapeno depending on preference.
- Layer another tortilla and place beans, beef, and cheese evenly.
- Repeat steps until all ingredients are gone.
- Put a top layer tortilla and pour red sauce, salsa, herbs, and spices.
- Bake at 400 for 20 minutes.
Serves up to 6 people.
The basic structure of this recipe is take the beans, cheese, and beef and layer them in succession. You can mix up the layers but, I do suggest putting a layer of cheese on each level. I also tend to throw in a couple jalapenos, carmalized red onion, and fresh roma tomato in between the layers when I’m feeling unorthodox.














this looks messy, but I bet it’s goooooood!!
