Baked Taquitos

18 corn tortillas
2 lb. carne asada beef, shredded
1/2 c. diced onion
3 cloves garlic, diced
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. paprika
1 c. shredded colby jack cheese
Non-stick spray

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. In a skillet, saute the onions and garlic. Add paprika and stir until onions are soft. Add beef and chili powder and continue sauteing until beef is cooked through. While beef is cooking, wrap tortillas in two wet paper towels and microwave 2 minutes to soften.
Spray bottom of a cookie sheet with non-stick spray. With each tortilla, fill with beef and fold over. Put on cookie sheet seam side down. Spray the tops of the taquitos with non-stick spray. Bake for 10 minutes. If tortillas are crisp, sprinkle cheese over them and bake an additional 2 minutes.


Prep time: 10 minutes
Bake time: 12 minutes
Serves: 3

To make a vegetarian version of this, I substituted a cup of sliced mushrooms and a cup cauliflower for the beef.
