Tips for Success:

• Customizing Toppings: Feel free to customize your taco breadsticks with additional toppings like chopped onions, jalapeños, or cooked ground beef or chicken for an extra hearty snack.
• Store-bought Dough vs. Homemade Dough: If you’re short on time, refrigerated pizza dough works perfectly. However, if you have more time to spare, homemade dough will make the breadsticks even more delicious.
• Cheese Variations: Mix and match cheeses! You could use a blend of cheddar, mozzarella, and Monterey Jack cheese for a cheesy combo or even sprinkle in some cotija cheese for an authentic Mexican touch.
• For a Crispy Bottom: For a crispier texture, bake the breadsticks on a pizza stone, or place them directly on the oven rack (after placing parchment paper beneath them).
• Taco Meat: For a heartier meal, top the breadsticks with cooked taco meat (beef, chicken, or turkey) before adding the cheese and baking. This turns them into a more substantial snack or dinner option.

  • 1 can (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough (or use homemade pizza dough)
