Question 3

To make Mexican Pizza, you need to cook ground beef with taco seasoning and water in a skillet. Then lightly pan fry corn tortillas in oil until crisp.

Question 5

How do you reheat leftover Mexican Pizza?

Accepted Answer

You can reheat leftover Mexican Pizza in the oven or toaster oven at 375°F for about 10 minutes or until heated through. You can also reheat it in the microwave for about a minute per slice but it may lose some crispiness.

Question 6

When does Mexican Pizza expire?

Accepted Answer

Unopened, a store-bought frozen Mexican pizza has a shelf life of 6 to 8 months past the 'sell-by' date on the packaging. If kept in a refrigerator, the pizza should ideally be consumed within 3-5 days. If you're dealing with leftover pizza that has been cooked, it will last for 3 to 4 days in your refrigerator. If you've frozen the pizza, it can be kept indefinitely, but for best quality, it should be consumed within 1 to 2 months.

Question 7

How do you tell if Mexican Pizza is bad?

Accepted Answer

Identifying spoiled Mexican pizza isn't as hard as you'd think. If you notice discoloration or spots of mold, especially on the cheese or toppings, that's a clear sign. The crust might also appear dehydrated and hard, and there could be a sour or unpleasant off-odor. Also, if you taste it and it has a strange tang, it's safer to discard it.

Question 8

Tips for storing Mexican Pizza to extend shelf life

Accepted Answer

• Always store leftover pizza in airtight containers or tightly wrapped in aluminum foil or plastic wrap.

• For a period of less than 3 days, you can store the pizza in the refrigerator.

• For longer storage, consider freezing your pizza. To do this, first wrap the slices individually in plastic wrap then place them in airtight containers or freezer bags.

• Always let the pizza cool down before storing to prevent moisture from being trapped, which can lead to spoiling.

• When reheating frozen slices, allow them to thaw in the refrigerator first before heating in the oven for best results and to avoid a soggy crust.
