  5. Evenly spread tortilla with 1/4 cup hot refried beans.
  6. Evenly top refried beans with 1/4 (approximately 4 ounces) of the cooked ground beef.
  7. Top ground beef with second crisp tortilla and evenly spread 1 heaping tablespoon of pizza sauce over the tortilla.
  8. Evenly top the pizza sauce with 1/4 cup grated Mexican cheese blend and 2 tablespoons chopped tomatoes.
  9. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for remaining 3 servings.
  10. Place all 4 pizzas, at one time, in 350 degrees F oven on a cookie pan/flat pan, and bake for 2 minutes to melt the cheese. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon chopped cilantro evenly over the top of each pizza. Serve each pizza whole.
