Beef Taquitos with Salsa

Tortillas that are crispy and rolled with seasoned beef and fresh salsa.
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 cup salsa for serving

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F and line a baking sheet.
  2. Brown the beef, stir in taco seasoning with a splash of water, then mix in the cheese off the heat.
  3. Warm the tortillas so they roll without cracking, spoon beef onto each, and roll up tightly.
  4. Place seam-side down on the sheet and brush with oil.
  5. Bake 18-20 minutes until crisp and golden.
  6. Serve hot with salsa for dipping.

Notes

Microwaving the tortillas under a damp towel keeps them from splitting.
