My Expert Tips for Perfect Mexican Pizzas
Always crisp the tortillas before topping—otherwise, your pizzas might turn soggy.
Layer beans and beef evenly to help every pizza stand up to generous toppings.
For protein variety, swap ground beef with shredded chicken, turkey, or black beans.
Make-ahead tip: prep the beef and beans the night before, then assemble and bake at dinner.
Cut pizzas with a sharp pizza wheel for clean slices and less topping loss.
Make Ahead & Storage Advice
These pizzas are best the day they’re made, but leftovers keep in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven for best crunch—microwaving works, but the tortillas may soften. For freezer prep, assemble pizzas (without the fresh toppings), wrap tightly, and freeze. Reheat directly in the oven.
