Ingredients

6 ounces bulk Italian sausage
10 taco shells
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
3 ounces sliced pepperoni, chopped
⅓ cup minced onion
⅓ cup diced green bell pepper
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives
½ cup pizza sauce
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 sprig fresh oregano, leaves picked from stem

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir Italian sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
Arrange taco shells upright in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese along the bottom of each taco shell.
Divide Italian sausage, pepperoni, onion, green bell pepper, and olives among the taco shells. Top each with 1 to 2 tablespoons pizza sauce, more mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh oregano.
