Spicy Beef Taquitos


After we enjoyed eating the Chicken Taquitos , I decided to make beef taquitos since I had some left over roast beef. The beef taquitos are a bit on the spicy side if you like it milder, just decrease the amount of chipotle salsa. Enjoy this taquitos with guacamole and sour cream. My 2 year old son loved it and it was easy for him to eat .( I skipped the chipotle salsa when making his taquito). These are also great as party food.I used white mild chedder cheese with my taquitos but you can use any kind of cheese you like.

Ingredients:
Makes 8 Taqitos

2 cups cooked roast beef sliced against grains
2 garlic cloves minced
½ cup tomato salsa
¼ cup chipotle salsa
Juice of 1 lime
½ tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. onion powder
½ cup shredded cheese (choose your favorite cheese)
8 medium tortillas


Directions:

Heat oven to 425°.
Mix beef, garlic, salsa, chipotle salsa, lime juice, salt, cumin and onion powder.
Cover tortillas with a wet paper towel and microwave for 30 secs. (So they are easier to roll)
Divide the beef mixture on the tortillas, top with shredded cheese. Roll tortillas.
Prepare a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil and sprayed.
Put tortillas on sheet and spray with cooking oil.
Bake for 15-20 mins or until golden brown.
