Our version of this beloved fast food option starts with corn tortillas that are toasted until crisp, then sandwiches refried beans and seasoned turkey between two of them. On top goes a combo of pizza sauce and red salsa and a shower of Mexican-style cheese blend. It’s just as delicious as its less-healthy counterpart.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Corn tortilla

8 tortilla(s), medium

Uncooked ground turkey breast

8 oz

Reduced sodium taco seasoning

1 Tbsp

Fat free refried beans

1 cup(s), warmed

Store-bought pizza sauce

¼ cup(s)

Salsa

¼ cup(s)

Shredded reduced fat Mexican-style cheese blend

1 cup(s)

Tomato

½ cup(s), chopped

Scallions

2 Tbsp, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with foil. Arrange 4 tortillas on the pan; coat both sides with cooking spray. Bake until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the tortillas and rotating the pan halfway through. Remove the baked tortillas from the pan; repeat the process with the remaining tortillas (or use two pans and bake all 8 at the same time if possible).
  2. Meanwhile, coat a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium. Add the turkey to the pan; cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to crumble. Stir in the taco seasoning and ¼ cup water; cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. In a small bowl, stir together the pizza sauce and salsa.
  3. Heat the broiler to high. Spread ¼ cup refried beans onto each of 4 tortillas; top evenly with the turkey mixture. Top each with another tortilla. Spread 2 tbsp salsa mixture over each top tortilla; sprinkle each with ¼ cup cheese. Arrange the tortilla stacks on the pan. Broil until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the tomatoes and scallions, if desired, on top.
  4. Serving size: 1 pizza
