Taquitos (Easy)

I just tried this recipe and it turned our fine, except I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt, adobo seasoning and kosher salt. I didn't have any red peppers so I used a green one. I spread each taco with taco sauce before I spread the meat mixture on it. I would recommend that the filling gets processed in the food processor to make it easier to spread thinly over the soft tortilla so as to make it easier to roll up. I served it on a bed of cut up lettuce and tomato slices,poured salsa over the taquitos and then dolloped on the sour cream with shredded cheddar cheese to finish it off. Tasted great.

These are fantastic. I suggest putting shredded cheese on top of them during the second half of the baking time and turning it up to 400°F.
