Recreating Taco Bell Mexican Pizzas at home is so easy! First, you just need a few simple ingredients: low carb or low point tortillas, seasoned beef, refried beans, Taco Bell mild or hot sauce, olives, tomatoes, and green onions. These are always a huge hit at our house! My husband and kids love adding their favorite toppings! Enjoy!

What ingredients do I need to make these Lightened Up Taco Bell Copycat Mexican Pizzas?

• Carb balance white low carb tortillas– any low point small tortillas will work. I like the Mission carb balance tortillas. They are 2 WW points each and only 70 calories each!
• Lean ground beef- I like to use 96% lean ground beef. Browned and seasoned with taco seasoning. If you’re wanting this to be vegetarian-you can omit the beef all together!
• Taco Bell taco seasoning
• Fat free refried beans-They act as binding agent that holds the layers together.
• Taco Bell mild or hot sauce– you can find this at most grocery stores! And it legit tastes as if you ordered it from the restaurant.
• Reduced fat Mexican cheese blend-I like to use Trader Joe’s lite Mexican cheese.
• Roma tomato-diced. For garnish.
• Green onion– sliced. For garnish.

Add a layer of taco meat.

Next, lay the second crispy tortilla shell on top of the meat.
