- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 teaspoon chili powder

- 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
- 1/2 cup taco sauce (mild or medium)

Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder until browned, about 6–8 minutes. Set aside.

- Spread refried beans evenly over one tortilla.
- Layer cooked beef on top of the beans.
- Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the beef.
- Add chopped tomatoes, green onions, and black olives if using.
- Drizzle taco sauce over the toppings.
- Place the second tortilla on top and gently press down.
- Return the assembled pizza to the skillet over low heat. Cover and heat for 2–3 minutes until cheese melts and layers bind.
- Slice into squares or triangles and serve immediately.
Notes
For extra crispiness, lightly toast tortillas before assembling.
Customize toppings with bell peppers, corn, or jalapeños.
Use mild or medium taco sauce depending on your spice preference.
