I made these last night and both my son and I enjoyed them. I really don't like the thought of "rating" someone's recipe so I didn't use the star scale, but I would say these are a little above average. I used ground turkey instead of beef and doubled the amount of meat called for. It made plenty of pizzas- we ate three each and still had a plate full left over to eat later. (I halved the recipe). The meat mixture was dee-lish. The corn tortillas weren't quite as crunchy as I'd have liked, except around the edges. The only thing I'd do differently would be to add about 1/4 cup of corn in the meat mixture, and some sour cream on top. But I'd make them again. -
I had selected about 8 individual type pizza recipes for the kids at my daughter's birthday/slumber party to choose from and this was it! They wanted a little more variation in the selections of meat though than just burger. Some didn't want burger at all. I browned the burger as directed, but warmed the sauce separately. Then I gave the kids all choices between burger, canadian bacon and pepperoni and a choice between cheddar/mozarella or mozarella cheese on top. Everyone thought these were fabulous! They were quick and easy as well as being a big hit with the teens and had the flexibility to accommodate varying preferences. Thank you for sharing this recipe Inez!!! -
This was very tasty and I will most likely make it again. However it was a bit soggy in the middle even though the edges were crisp. Thank you for sharing. -
This is something I make quite a bit. It is one of my favorites that my son loves too! Thanks for posting it!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
