Seriously-ever since I started making these I rarely want meat taquitos anymore! My three kids even eat them which is saying a lot for them, they are super picky. I also like to use this mixture and sauce for my burrito bowls. If you’re gluten free simply use corn tortillas to make this recipe work for you!
So, would you give these a go for your Meatless Monday Night? If you try them please let me know what you think in the comments below-I’m excited to hear what you think!
