These tacos happened when my son was going through his "everything needs to be a taco" phase while my daughter was obsessed with meat lovers pizza. I figured why not combine both and see what happens? Turns out, putting all those pizza meats and toppings on a tortilla with melted cheese creates this amazing fusion that tastes like pizza but eats like a taco. The combination of ground beef, pepperoni, bacon, and sausage gives you all those familiar pizza flavors, while the tortilla makes it way easier to eat than trying to balance a loaded pizza slice.
Why You'll Love These
- Best of both worlds - All the flavors of meat lovers pizza but in handheld taco form
- Quick weeknight dinner - Ready in 25 minutes using ingredients you probably already have
- Kid-approved winner - Even picky eaters love these because they taste like pizza
My neighbor's teenage boys were over when I first made these, and they literally stood around the kitchen eating them straight off the baking sheet. One of them said it was "like pizza but better because it doesn't fall apart everywhere." Now their mom texts me asking for the recipe whenever she needs something quick that will actually fill up growing teenagers.
Ingredients
Ground beef - The base that holds everything together and adds substance
Three kinds of meat - Pepperoni, bacon, and sausage because more meat is always better
Pizza sauce - This is what makes it taste like pizza instead of just a meat taco
Mozzarella cheese - Gets all melty and bubbly just like on real pizza
Classic pizza toppings - Bell peppers, onions, and olives for that authentic pizza flavor
