Homemade Mexican Pizza 🌮🍕

Ingredients:
For the pizza base:

4 large flour tortillas
2 tbsp vegetable oil
For the filling:

1 cup cooked ground beef or shredded chicken
1/2 cup refried beans
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
For the toppings:

1/2 cup salsa or enchilada sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup sliced black olives
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped green onions
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
1/4 cup sour cream (for drizzling)
Directions:
Preheat & prepare tortillas: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Brush both sides of each tortilla lightly with vegetable oil. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Set aside.

Prepare the filling: In a pan over medium heat, warm the refried beans until smooth. In a separate pan, season the cooked ground beef (or chicken) with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well and set aside.

Assemble the pizza: Spread a thin layer of refried beans on two tortillas. Top each with seasoned meat. Place another crispy tortilla on top, like a sandwich.

Add toppings: Spread salsa or enchilada sauce over the top tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the surface.

Bake or broil: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the assembled pizzas on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Alternatively, broil for 2-3 minutes for a golden, slightly crispy top.
