🔥 Instructions
1. Prep the tortillas

- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning if desired.
3. Preheat air fryer
- Set air fryer to 370°F (185°C) for 3–5 minutes.
4. Air fry tacos

💡 Tips for Perfect Pizza Tacos
- Don’t overfill — too much cheese or toppings can prevent crisping.

- For extra crisp, lightly brush the outside of the tortillas with oil.
- Can add veggies or cooked chicken for variety.
