These mini pizzas combine the flavors of tacos with the fun and variety of pizza. A favorite for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

  • 12 cup Corn tortillas, or flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil or margarine
  • 16 cup Refried beans, fat-free, low-sodium
  • 1/2 medium onion Onion, chopped
  • 2 tsp Fresh or canned green chili peppers diced
  • 3 tbsp Red taco sauce
  • 3 tsp Vegetables, such as broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, and red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tbsp Cheese, shredded part-skim mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp Cilantro (chopped, fresh, optional)

Instructions

  1. Brush one side of each of two tortillas with water. Press the wet sides of the tortillas together to form a thick crust for the pizza.
  2. Brush the outside of the tortillas with a small amount of oil or margarine. Evenly brown both sides in a heated frying pan. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas. Set aside.
  3. Heat refried beans, onion, and half of the chili peppers together in a medium saucepan, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
  4. Spread about 1/3 cup of the bean mixture on each tortilla pizza. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon taco sauce, then top with 1/2 cup of the chopped vegetables, 1 teaspoon chili peppers, and 1 tablespoon cheese for each pizza.
  5. Return to frying pan and heat until cheese melts. Top with cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately.
