I love these easy Cheesy Taco Sticks – soft, buttery, stuffed with taco meat and gooey cheese. Serve these with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole dip for dinner or lunch, even snacks. Whenever I make these, I always ask the kids to give me a hand. It’s super easy that even my kids can do it. Pizza in a form of breadsticks! How amazing is that? We are obsessed with these mouthwatering cheesy taco sticks. One bite and we instantly fell crazy in love!

HOW TO MAKE EASY CHEESY TACO STICKS
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 425 degrees F.

Step 4: Remove the skillet from the heat and set the seasoned ground beef aside to cool.
Step 5: Lay flat the pizza dough and slice halfway lengthwise. Then, cut both in 5 equal rectangles to make 10 triangles.
Step 6: Add the cooled taco meat on the centre of the rectangles and top with half of the Colby Jack cheese stick.
Step 7: Seal by rolling up the pizza dough over the meat and cheese. Pinch it close to make a breadstick.
Step 8: Transfer each taco stick on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 9: In a small bowl, stir the butter, garlic powder, and dry parsley. And lavishly brush the tops of the breadsticks with the butter mixture.
Step 10: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 11: Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
