Shredded Beef Taquito's

Taquito's are one of my favorite go to foods in the whole entire world. They are just a roll full of gooey, hearty, delicious crunchy yum. They are so easy to make and a great meal, snack or party favor. Enjoy, spread the love!

Whatcha need:

2-3 tablespoons canola oil
10 corn tortillas (I used white, but you can use yellow as well)
2 cups cooked shredded beef (recipe follows)
2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
shredded lettuce
Guacamole- Make your own, please (recipe on blog)
non-stick spray

How to roll um:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray baking  sheet with non-stick spray.

Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry each tortilla one at a time until soft, about 30 seconds per side (you want them soft so that you can roll them). Add more oil if needed. Transfer to plate using a paper towel to separate each tortilla.

To assemble, spoon 2 tablespoons of meat mixture into tortilla and roll closed. Place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all are rolled.

Bake in oven for 15 -20 minutes or until ends start to brown. Remove and sprinkle cheese on top. Turn oven setting to broil and broil for 2-3 minutes or until cheese melts. Remove from oven.

Top with shredded lettuce and guacamole. Serve with salsa for dipping.
