When it comes to types of food, I could eat Mexican day in and day out. Dan's mentioned getting me a shirt that says, “I'm just here for the queso.” It's so true. Enchiladas, tacos, fajitas, you name it, it's all good and worthy of breakfast, lunch, and dinner, in my opinion.

Of course, a hearty Mexican Pizza, loaded down with all the fixin's, rates really high on my list of favorite meals; it's also just one of the many meals my kids love. 

This particular Mexican Pizza is loaded with the fixin's of your choosing, including but not limited to lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado.

It's easy and simple to make, but I wouldn't call it a quick meal. It takes a little time to prepare, especially if you prefer to take your time.

I find myself way less stressed when I can go in the kitchen and just take my time. Turn a little music on, gather all my ingredients, and just enjoy the process of putting together a meal, all the time looking forward to eating and enjoying it with my family.

So, How to Put this Mexican Pizza together…

  1. Sandwich two small (taco-sized) tortillas together with refried beans.
