Description
A delicious twist on traditional pizza, these Meat Lovers Pizza Tacos combine the flavors of pizza with the convenience of tacos.
Ingredients
Scale
- 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)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and Italian sausage until fully browned. Drain any excess fat. Add the dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on each tortilla. Evenly distribute the cooked meat mixture over the tortillas. Top with pepperoni slices, black olives, shredded mozzarella, and cheddar cheese.
- Place the prepared tortillas on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the tortillas are crispy.
- Remove the tacos from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with chopped basil, grated Parmesan, and red pepper flakes, if desired. Cut each pizza taco into wedges and serve warm.
