    Copycat Mexican Pizza

    With the help of an air fryer, you can make a copycat Taco Bell Mexican pizza at home in a snap! Tortillas get layered with tender ground sirloin, hearty kidney and refried beans, tangy tomato sauce and a blend of Mexican cheese before getting cooked until the edges are crispy while the center stays soft. You can also alternate the toppings to your liking, so your "order" is always right. —Kimberly Wallace, Dennison, Ohio
