This Mexican pizza can be whipped up for a quick weeknight dinner. I use my cast iron skillet to fry the tortillas, and then bake them on this sheet pan. Flour tortillas layered with beans and taco meat then topped with sauce, cheese, and all your favorite toppings. Put a dollop of sour cream or salsa. Mmmm Perfection!!
