Taco Bell’s “Healthified” Mexican Pizza (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Taco Bell’s “Healthified” Mexican Pizza (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Recreating fast food faves is way too fun! Introducing the delicious Mexican Pizza we all love from Taco Bell, with a bit of a healthy twist 🙂

If you loved the Crunchwrap Supreme recipe, you’re going to love this one even more. For all my Vegan friends, this recipe is just as easy with your favorite vegan ground meat substitute. Follow recipe the exact same way with your protein substitute option.

Step 1

Start by cooking your meat, over medium heat with a drizzle of avocado oil. Add in taco seasoning according to package. Break up well with a wooden spoon.

Step 2

While that cooks, heat a skillet over medium heat and spray with avocado oil spray or coconut oil spray. Once it’s hot, add your tortilla. Cook for about a minute on each side or until they get crispy (you will need 2 tortillas per Mexican pizza).

Step 3

Spread refried black beans evenly over your crispy tortilla then top with your taco meat and cashew fiesta dip (melt this first). Add another tortilla on top, spread evenly with red enchilada sauce, sprinkle cheese over the sauce and add a couple spoonfuls of pico de gallo on top.

Step 4

Broil for about 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted and voila! (Option to top with vegan sour cream, fresh avocado or guacamole after).

Enjoy!

Healthified Crunchwrap Supreme (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Healthified Crunchwrap Supreme (Gluten & Dairy Free)

This ones for those late night fast food cravers! Taco Bell cravers to be specific.

Lately I’ve been inspired to recreate fast food favorites into easy, healthier options – which is how this hack came to! The only difficult part of this is trying to eat it slow enough to enjoy it. Yes, these are THAT GOOD.


Ingredients:

1/2 Yellow Onion, chopped

Olive Oil, to coat pan

1/2 cup Beef Bone Broth

1 package Siete Mild Taco Seasoning, linked here

1 lb Ground Beef

1 jar Siete Cashew Queso, linked here

Dairy Free Sour Cream

Shredded Dairy Free Colby or Cheddar Cheese

Guacamole

Shredded Lettuce

Salsa

1 package Siete Chickpea tortillas, linked here

1 package Siete Burrito size tortillas, linked here

(you can substitute any of your favorite gluten free burrito size tortillas)


Step 1

Heat up olive oil in small skillet over medium heat, and “fry” half of the chickpea tortillas (this is your “crunch layer” for the center of the crunchwrap).

Step 2

In a large pan over medium heat, cook the ground onion and ground beef. Once ground beef is almost cooked through, add in the packet of taco seasoning and bone broth. Stir in a handful of shredded cheese and remove from heat once melted.

Step 3

Time to build the Crunchwraps in this order:

  • 1 large burrito size tortilla, warmed
  • Prepared taco meat on the bottom in the center of tortilla
  • Top with Cashew Queso, Salsa and Sour Cream
  • Place the prepared crunch layer on top (you can break this up to make it easier to fold)
  • Add guacamole and shredded lettuce
  • Take a soft chickpea tortilla and use half to cover the lettuce, then gently fold the larger tortilla to form your crunchwrap

Step 4

Add crunchwrap fold side down to an oiled, hot pan on medium heat. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side then flip. Cook until browned and crispy.
