3. Assemble the tacos:
   Place the taco shells on a baking sheet. Spoon the meat mixture evenly into each shell.
   Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the meat, then top with slices of pepperoni.

5. Add toppings and serve:
   Garnish with optional toppings like sliced olives, chopped bell peppers, or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
   Serve hot and enjoy!
