Mexican pizza is my version of tacos, sauce and salsa. The tacos I make are from plain white flour but fried it like Mexican tacos, sprinkle salsa that requires quick cooking, spreading the cheese and straight into the oven.
Mexican pizza is delicious and highly recommended as a treat for guests at a buffet - or on its own when you’re in the mood to eat something interesting.
The recipe is for 7-8 tacos. Warning! Make more than you need – they will get eaten!
