These Cheesy Taco Sticks are a fun twist on traditional tacos, featuring seasoned ground beef and gooey cheese rolled up in pizza dough and baked to golden perfection. Perfect for a quick and delicious appetizer or snack!

Ingredients

Scale

For the Taco Sticks:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning mix
  • 1 tube Pillsbury Pizza Dough
  • 5 colby jack and cheddar cheese sticks, halved

For the Garlic Butter:

  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning to the beef, following the instructions on the seasoning packet. Stir to combine and set aside.
  3. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the Pillsbury Pizza Dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough into 10 equal rectangles.
  4. Assemble the Taco Sticks: Spoon a small portion of the seasoned beef onto each rectangle. Place a halved cheese stick on top of the beef. Roll the dough around the filling, pinching the edges to seal tightly. Place the taco sticks seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Brush with Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic powder and dried parsley. Brush this mixture generously over each taco stick.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and fully cooked through.
  7. Serve: Allow the taco sticks to cool slightly before serving. Pair them with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream for dipping!
