Lightly spray or brush tortillas with olive oil and bake on a baking sheet for 5–7 minutes per side until crisp. Set aside. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until thickened. Warm refried beans slightly to make them easier to spread. Spread a thin layer over two crisped tortillas. Top each with half of the seasoned beef, then place the other tortillas on top to form pizza "sandwiches." Spread salsa or enchilada sauce over the top of each. Sprinkle with cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. Add diced tomatoes, olives, and green onions over the cheese. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Slice and serve with sour cream, guacamole, or hot sauce if desired.
