Prep Time 10 minutes

Total Time 11 minutes
Serving Size 6

Ingredients

  • Around 8 flour tortillas I used whole wheat and white
  • 1 can refried beans 16 ounce (I used vegetarian)
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Oil
  • Salsa
  • Sour cream

Instructions

  • Stir together the taco seasoning and beans and spread a spoonful down the middle of each tortilla.
  • Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Roll tightly.
  • Cover bottom of pan with oil, place over medium low heat and gently place taquitos in pan, and fry while turning to get each side golden brown.
  • It takes less than a minute for each side depending on how hot your pan and oil are (I have an electric stove and had it set between 2 and 3). Using tongs for this helps keep your burritos closed, and watch out for popping oil!
  • Drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Let cool for a few minutes and serve with sour cream and salsa.
