Method
 

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
  1. Collect all the goodies: flour tortillas, shredded cheese, cooked ground beef or turkey, taco seasoning, and your favorite toppings!
Step 2: Preheat the Oven
  1. Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and let it warm up while you prepare the taco sticks.
Step 3: Mix the Filling
  1. In a bowl, combine the cooked meat with taco seasoning and a sprinkle of cheese. Mix it all up until it’s well blended!
Step 4: Assemble the Taco Sticks
  1. Lay a tortilla flat, spoon some filling onto it, and sprinkle more cheese on top. Roll it up tightly like a burrito!
Step 5: Prepare for Baking
  1. Place the rolled taco sticks seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Give them a little space to breathe!
Step 6: Bake to Perfection
  1. Pop the baking sheet in the oven and let them bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!
  1. Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a minute. Serve with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream for dipping!
