Ingredients
– 1 pound Italian sausage
– 3 ounces mini pepperoni
– 1 cup pizza sauce
– A pinch crushed red pepper flakes
– 8-10 corn or flour tortillas
– 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– Fresh basil
Instructions
1-First, brown 1 pound of Italian sausage in a skillet over medium heat until it’s fully cooked and crumbly. This step builds a hearty base for your tacos and takes just a few minutes.
2-Next, add 3 ounces of mini pepperoni to the skillet and cook until it’s crisp around the edges, which adds that classic pizza crunch. Once that’s done, stir in 1 cup of pizza sauce and an optional pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, heating everything through for a flavorful mix.
3-Then, warm your 8-10 corn or flour tortillas, charring them slightly on a pan for extra flavor if you like. Fill each tortilla with the sausage mixture, top with 3/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, and add fresh basil if desired for a fresh finish.
4-Finally, serve right away while everything’s warm and melty. If you’re adapting for dietary needs, swap ingredients early in the steps to keep it simple. For more dessert ideas to follow your meal, check out this chocolate eclair cake recipe on our site, perfect for a sweet ending.
