Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 tostada shells
  • 3/4 lb ground beef (I use 90% lean)
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup refried beans
  • 1/4 cup red enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (I use a blend of cheddar and monterey jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives

Instruction

  • Heat the oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the ground beef to the pan, season with taco seasoning and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is cooked through, 4-5 minutes.
  • While the beef is cooking, warm the refried beans. 
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Place 4 tostada shells on a sheet pan. Spread 1/4 cup of refried beans over each tostada, then top each one with 1/3 cup meat.
  • Place a second tostada on top of the meat. 
  • Spread 1 tablespoon of enchilada sauce on top of the Mexican pizzas, then top each one with 1/4 cup of cheese.
  • Broil for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with tomatoes, green onions and olives, then serve immediately.
