Crispy Mexican Tortilla Pizza – this easy tortilla pizza only takes 15 minutes to make! Topped with good-for-you ingredients, Mexican pizza is an easy family favorite!

Mexican + Pizza = Mexican Pizza

My boys love pizza and Mexican food so it isn’t a surprise that one of their favorite meals is this Crispy Tortilla Mexican Pizza. They probably eat this Mexican pizza once a week and I am ok with that because it is super easy to make and topped with good-for-you ingredients! And when I say easy, I mean 15 minutes easy…you can’t beat that!

The Tortilla Pizza Crust

The crust of the tortilla pizza is, you guessed it, a flour tortilla! You don’t have to roll out any pizza dough for this Mexican pizza. See, I told you it was easy! We like to use Old El Paso’s Restaurant Grande Flour Tortillas because they are huge and great for making this Mexican pizza. You can make smaller Mexican tortilla pizzas by using regular flour tortillas. Both work great!

How to Make Mexican Pizza

We crisp up the tortillas in the oven and then top them with Old El Paso’s Vegetarian Refried Beans, salsa, and shredded cheese. They go back in the oven for a hot minute, just until the cheese is melted, and then we top them with all of our favorite toppings. We like to add tomatoes, black olives, avocado, cilantro, and green onion. Feel free to add your favorite Mexican toppings!

Cut the tortilla pizza into slices and serve immediately! The pizza is crispy and delicious!
