Directions
-
Preheat the oven according to the instructions on the pizza dough package. This step is crucial for ensuring a proper bake—a tremendous golden crust is what you are aiming for.
-
In a skillet, add the ground beef over medium heat. As it cooks, sprinkle in the taco seasoning. Add the 1/3 cup of water and stir until the beef is fully cooked and heated through. This will create a tremendous southern flavor that complements the breadsticks wonderfully.
-
Roll out the pizza dough on a clean, floured surface. With a knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into strips, about 1 inch wide. This size is perfect for rolling and holding your flavorful filling.
-
Place a generous amount of the cooked beef mixture on each strip of dough, then sprinkle with shredded cheese. The warmth of the beef will start to melt the cheese, making it even more irresistible! Fold or roll the dough around the filling, sealing the edges to keep everything inside.
-
Arrange the filled breadsticks on a baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking. Bake them in the oven until they are golden brown, which usually takes about 12-15 minutes. The sight of them emerging from the oven will be a tremendous treat for your eyes.
-
Serve your cheesy taco breadsticks hot from the oven with optional toppings such as sour cream, salsa, or jalapeños for that extra kick.
