The other day I was curious to see how many points a Taco Bell Mexican Pizza would be. SEVENTEEN POINTS!!!!! 

No way, totally not worth it. I knew I could easily make my own to satisfy my craving. 

So that’s exactly what I did. My Mexican pizza is only 6 points for blue and purple, 9 points for green.

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup fat free refried beans
  • 1 cup reduced fat Mexican cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup Taco Bell mild sauce (I found this in the Mexican isle at my local grocery store)
  • 8 tostada shells (the ones I used were 13 points for all 8, double check your points)
