🔥 For extra flavor, lightly char flour tortillas on a gas stove or in a dry skillet before serving – this adds a smoky depth that complements the pizza flavors
🥩 You can mix ground beef with the sausage to soften the boldness of the filling – try a 50/50 ratio for a milder taste that kids will love
🌶️ Add vegetables like peppers, onions, or mushrooms to create a supreme pizza taco variation – sauté them with the sausage for extra flavor
