Quick and easy meals are becoming a must in our fast paced lives, here is a recipe that meets the needs of working families who would rather spend more time enjoying dinner than cooking it. Clean up is easy with this recipe too! The baked, not fried, approach makes it healthier than most taquito recipes. If you have a large family who can eat 20 taquitos, great. If not, you can also freeze some to bake at a later date. Whoohoo, two meals for the preparation time of one! Don't you love when an easy meal becomes even easier for a second one?
