Taquitos are more traditionally stuffed with beef, chicken, or cheese, but we took our love of pizza and changed them up a bit. Filled with our favorite pizza topping of mozz, pepperoni, and marinara and then brushed in a garlic butter to make the tortilla extra crispy. It's nothing you would expect of a traditional taquito but we love it just the same.
