Taco Bell Mexican Pizza Casserole has all the bold, cheesy flavor of Taco Bell\u2019s Mexican Pizza but in a layered, easy-to-make casserole!<\/em><\/p>\n

COMFORT FOOD CASSEROLE <\/h2>\n

This absolutely delicious Taco Bell Mexican Pizza Casserole is inspired by the Taco Bell Mexican Pizza<\/a> but in casserole form. You can\u2019t go wrong with a casserole and it\u2019s so much easier to make than individual pizzas. With layers of crisp tortillas, taco seasoned beef, refried beans, gooey melted cheese, and zesty toppings, it has become one of my personal favorite meals I have made recently! Huge hit with the family!<\/p>\n

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:\u00a0<\/h2>\n
\n
Can I fry the tortillas instead of baking?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

I tested this with fried tortillas and we found they didn\u2019t hold up too well to the weight of the toppings. You could certainly do that but the crispiness from the baking gave this a more desirable texture. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can I use corn tortillas instead of flour?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

This is supposed to replicate a Taco Bell Mexican Pizza which uses flour tortillas but you could use corn if that is your preference.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What else can I add?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Personally, I would throw some sliced olives on there like they used to do back in the day but that is personal taste.\u00a0I didn\u2019t add them originally to this recipe as I know so many people don\u2019t like them, but if it was just me I was making this we\u2019d add them too. Also, I think drizzling with a little sour cream or some taco sauce when serving would be yummy! Like any casserole, it\u2019s not pretty but it sure is yummy!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What if I don\u2019t like enchilada sauce?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Walmart now sells a Taco Bell Mexican Pizza Dip<\/a> (not a paid affiliate link) that I think would be a great alternative. I haven\u2019t tried it yet because the one by me doesn\u2019t sell it yet but I think that could be used instead of the enchilada sauce if that\u2019s what you prefer to use.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What should I serve with this casserole?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

It is kind of a whole meal in one so perhaps something light like a side salad or some steamed veggies. I think fried corn<\/a> would be delicious too. Or you could go for a side of corn cake, like you can get at Mexican restaurants.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

How to store leftover casserole?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

You can keep the leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Please note the longer this dish is in the fridge the tortilla chips will get a bit soggy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
