Make ahead and freeze for quick lunches (or breakfasts!) Feel free to use Breakfast or Garlic sausage for less heat.
- Prep Time:
- Cook Time:
- Servings: 14 taquitos
Ingredients
- (1 pound) Ground Chorizo Sausage
- (1 medium) Red Bell Pepper
- (1 cup) Pinto Beans
- (1/2 cup) Plain Green Yogurt
- (2/3 cup) Salsa
- (1 tsp) Ground Cumin
- (1.5 cups) Mexican cheese blend, shredded
- (14) 8 or 10 inch Tortillas
Directions
- Brown chorizo in skillet until cooked through, breaking apart into small pieces. Drain.
- Preheat oven to 425* F and spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Chop red pepper into small pieces. Rinse and drain beans.
- Mix together chorizo, beans, red bell pepper, Greek yogurt, tomatillo salsa, cumin, and cheese.
- Divide mixture evenly between 14 (6 inch) tortillas. Put the mixture in a line down the middle of the tortilla and roll tightly.
- Place seam side down on a large baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. Serve with avocado, sour cream, and/or salsa.
- If freezing, allow to cool. Then place taquitos in a single layer in a large zip-lock bag (or two) and freeze. To reheat, either microwave for about 2-4 minutes (time varies based on how many are being re-heated), or bake at 450* F for around 10 minutes, checking regularly to make sure they do not burn.
