- Roll the tortillas up tightly. This will help to keep the filling inside.
- If you're planning on baking the taco twirls, be sure to preheat the oven before you start cooking them. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Serve the taco twirls with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, or shredded cheese.
