Pizza Tacos

The Best Pizza Tacos

If you’re a fan of both Pizza and Tacos, you’re in for a real treat because nothing could be more satisfying than putting those two things together to make Pizza Tacos. And, the way I do it, the recipe stays true to Italian ingredients, only shaped and stuffed like tacos. If you need a Pizza Sauce recipe, I’ve got one. If you need an Alfredo Sauce recipe, I’ve got that too. I even have recipes for Pizza dough, if you choose not to use the frozen dinner rolls, and homemade Italian Sausage or you can just do what I did, and by everything for this recipe, pre-made, from your grocery store. It’s that easy.

Pizza Tacos Dough

There’s several different ways to make these Pizza Tacos. You can make your own Pizza Dough, for which I have a great recipe for, or use store bought dough like these frozen dinner rolls. I used this dough when I showed you how to make Utah Scones and it works great for recipes like this too because it cuts out half the work and makes it virtually fool proof. Plus it’s fun for a quick snack, lunch or dinner dates and/or for kids, if you want to get them cooking.

Alfredo Sauce, Pizza Sauce, chopped Spinach, Chicken and Pepperoni.

Pizza Tacos Filling

When I made these Pizza Tacos for the video, I made a standard Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza Taco and a Chicken Alfredo Taco with Spinach, just for variation. You, however, can make what ever you like. Just use this as a basic guide to get you from A-Z and have fun with your toppings. It doesn’t have to be the way I did it. Though, I used Italian sausage and some left over pulled chicken, you could totally go vegetarian or vegan with this recipe. Maybe a Philly Steak and Cheese sounds good, I don’t know. You decide. The sky’s the limit.

Pizza Tacos Ingredients:

8 Dinner Rolls Frozen Dough, thawed
1 cup Alfredo Sauce
1 cup Pizza Sauce
1 lbs Mozzarella Cheese, grated
1 lbs Italian Sausage, cooked
1 lbs Seasoned Chicken, cooked
1/2 cup Spinach, chopped
8 oz Mini Pepperoni

Oven max temperatures vary but I bake the Pizza Tacos twice at 500 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 to for minutes, both times. Just follow the instructions in the video tutorial for best results.

How to make Pasta – Ravioli Sheets, Fettuccine and Angel Hair Pasta

How to Make Pasta Tutorial

I’ve been wanting to show you how to make pasta for quite some time now. Mostly because I have yet to see a real good video tutorial that shows you, step by step, exactly how to do it. So I put together this “fool proof” recipe that will teach you how to make the dough, understand it’s texture and know for sure when it is ready. Once you understand this concept, you will make great pasta. With out it, you will fail and most likely end up frustrated or, worse, possibly end up hating the whole procedure altogether But the fact is, fresh pasta tastes 10 times better than dehydrated and once you see how easy this is you’ll never go back.

Another great thing about this recipe and the way I show you how to make pasta is that you can freeze the noodles in bunch’s or the dough in bulk. And if you want to defeat the purpose of making fresh pasta, in the first place, you can hang the noodles out on a rack and let them dry, if you want, when they’re done.

My How to make Pasta video

This, “How to make Pasta” video recipe will show you how to make Ravioli or Lasagna Noodle sheets first, then Fettuccine and Angel Hair Pasta. If you’re interested in some of my sauce recipes for these noodles check out my Alfredo Sauce(Olive Garden’s), Lobster Ravioli Sauce and my Alfredo and Cheese Sauce.

How to make Pasta Ingredients:

2 cups Flour, all purpose
3 Eggs, large
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 pinch Salt

Add a few drops of water, to the dough, as needed and knead the dough for 5 to 8 minutes before rolling it out into sheets and cutting out the noodles. The pasta only needs to be cooked for a few minutes in seasoned boiling water before serving. But be sure to watch my video, How to make Pasta – Ravioli Sheets, Fettuccine and Angel Hair Pasta, so that you will understand exactly what to do.

Alfredo and Cheese Sauce

The Best Cheese Sauce

Here is the Alfredo and Cheese Sauce I promised and it is so good. You’re probably going to be shocked when you see how it’s made but I’m certain that if you try it, you’ll be even more bewildered but amazed. I will admit that I was a bit bored when I came up with this idea but when I served this up to the wife and kids, we couldn’t stop eating it. So basically what I’ve done is taken a classic Italian Sauce recipe(French technically), Alfredo, and I’ve turned it into a true “Poor Man’s” recipe by adding an ingredient that will just blow your mind. Which is exactly what I do here, right? So let’s get crackin’!

Alfredo Cheese Sauce is Amazing

Believe it or not, the secret ingredient for this Alfredo Cheese sauce is Macaroni and Cheese Powder! And as you can see from the picture above, there’s nothing poor about this recipe. It’s rich, it’s creamy and the Fettuccine is perfectly cooked to Al dente. The only other thing you could add to make this sauce better, honestly, is Sriracha. I started squeezing that stuff over my Mac and Cheese a few years ago and it didn’t stop with this. I also love this dish with Garlic Parmesan Chicken, which is my next video recipe by the way, or with seafood twist; shrimp and scallops. Either way, I am certain you’re going to find this recipe dreadfully delightful! 😉

Also be sure to Check out the Olive Gardens Alfredo Sauce if you’re needing a more detailed tutorial on the basics of this sauce. I’m also plugging my Hawaiian Mac Salad recipe in case you need ideas for your left over Macaroni from the cheese box. You’ll see what I mean in the Alfredo and Cheese Sauce video below.

Alfredo and Cheese Sauce Ingredients:

Alfredo Sauce
1 Garlic Clove, chopped
1/4 cup Fresh Parmesan Cheese, grated
1/4 cup Dehydrated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Whipping Cream
1 pinch of Salt
1/4 tsp White Pepper

Add this for Cheese Sauce
1/4 cup Whipping Cream or Milk
1 Mac and Cheese Powder Packet

Don’t let the ingredients fool you if you are doubting this recipe. This Alfredo Cheese Sauce tastes absolutely amazing and don’t forget the Sriracha if you’ve got some.
