Notes

Brush the outside of the tortillas with olive oil before baking for extra crispiness. You can substitute beef with ground turkey or grilled chicken, and use different bell pepper colors for variety. For storage, keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, reheating in the oven for best texture.
