If you’re craving the ultimate comfort food, these Meat Lovers Pizza Tacos are a game-changer! They’re packed with delicious flavors and perfect for a fun dinner night. 🍕🌮✨
Ingredients:
– 1 lb ground beef
– 1/2 lb Italian sausage, crumbled
– 1/2 lb pepperoni slices
– 1/2 cup sliced black olives
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 cup pizza sauce
– 8 small flour tortillas
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh basil leaves, chopped (for garnish)
– Grated Parmesan cheese (for garnish)
– Red pepper flakes (optional, for garnish)
Directions:
1. Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and Italian sausage, cooking until both are fully browned and deliciously fragrant. Drain any excess fat to keep things from getting greasy.
2. Sprinkle in the dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and give everything a good stir to combine those flavors.
3. While that’s working its magic, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will be the cozy place for our tacos to get all melty and crispy!
4. Take each tortilla and spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on it. This is where the magic begins.
5. Evenly distribute your mouthwatering meat mixture over the sauced tortillas. Don’t be shy; pile it on!
6. Now, it’s time to add the fun toppings: layer on pepperoni slices, black olives, and generously sprinkle both mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top.
7. Carefully place your assembled tacos on a baking sheet and let them bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes. You want the cheese to melt and get bubbly, while the edges of the tortillas turn a lovely golden crisp.
8. Once they’re out of the oven, allow them to cool slightly—if you can resist that long!
9. Finally, garnish your pizza tacos with freshly chopped basil, a sprinkle of grated Parmesan, and red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
10. Cut each taco into wedges, and serve them warm to your eager friends and family. Enjoy every bite!
