Ingredients
  

1 package of refrigerated pizza dough

1 cup seasoned ground beef or turkey (cooked)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup refried beans

1/2 packet taco seasoning

1/4 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup chopped green onions

1/4 cup sliced black olives

1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Sour cream and salsa (for dipping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked ground beef or turkey with refried beans, taco seasoning, diced tomatoes, green onions, and black olives. Mix well until combined.

    Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

      Roll Out Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the refrigerated pizza dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.

        Cut Into Strips: Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into strips about 1 inch wide and 5-6 inches long.

          Add Filling: Take a strip of dough and place about a tablespoon of the taco filling in the center. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

            Seal the Sticks: Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal tightly. Repeat with all dough strips and filling until finished.

              Brush with Egg Wash: Place the cheesy taco sticks on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.

                  Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with sour cream and salsa for dipping.
