    This is my only taquitos recipe from now on. Great way to use up leftover chicken when you had roasted chicken the day before.

    This recipe was very quick and easy. My picky son eats two every time. Instead of mixing the cheese in, I sprinkle it on the top before I roll it. This way I can make extra filling and keep it in the fridge for a couple of days so that I can make them for a quick lunch for anyone still craving them. Otherwise, the cheese becomes soggy and not very appetizing. I followed the advice for spritzing the olive oil for crispyness which works nicely. And these do work will with flour tortillas which I have to make for my husband. Anyway, these were a big hit with my family which has been incorporated in our regular rotation of meals.

    This is a good recipe. The ingredients are not hard to find and most are probably in your kitchen already, and the recipe is quick and easy. It's a good recipe to make if you have small children. I follow the recipe exactly. I use Rotissiere (store or grilled/baked (I make myself chicken instead of canned chicken. (I hate cans. The taco seasoning adds to the flavor of the dish. I love how pliable the tortillas become with the wet napkin method. I've learned that if you only have a few tortillas, though, you should put them in the microwave for less than 1 minute, or else they will become hard. Microwaving up to 1 minute works best for bigger batches of tortillas (more than 5. Good eats for me and my family! I rated it only a 4 because the taste isn't "the best I have ever had in my entire life" (like the coconut shrimp recipe I rated, but it is definitely a good dish. I will continue to make this dish.

    I made these with beleive it or not, chicken salad that I purchased at Sams Club, that the experation date was coming up. I used about 4 tbls of taco seasoning, a little more cheese and a small serano pepper diced, and fried them in canola oil I made 9 and they were GREAT! My honeyng loved them, dipped them in ranch dressing anf hot sauce.
    the next batch I made, again using the chicken salad method (16I baked them according to the recipe, sprayed them with olive oil cooking spray and they also came out very tasty, with using the same dip. I love to experment with food and try to come up with ways to recycle leftovers.I hate to waste food.

    These were really good and pretty healthy too. I used salsa verde and chihuahua cheese. They could've used a little more kick. Maybe I'll use a spicy salsa next time.

    We are addicted to tje frozen ones so I though these would be a healthier option - they taste great, I will make it a point to read the reviews next time and spritz them with olive oil so they crisp up a little more but overall they were really good! Oh, and I chopped up some pepperoni and added that too - delicious!

    These were really good and easy to make. I actually spritzed some olive oil over them prior to baking them and they really crisped up! If you have a spritzer bottle it sprays a thin layer of oil over the taqutios without adding but 1 w.w point( if your doing w.w. and you use your oil points for the day towards them.

    I love taquitos, but never make them since they are so high in fat and calories. When I saw these made on the show I thought I would give them a try. They are so simple to make. It can easily be done on a week night. Both my husband and I thought they were good. Maybe not as good as the real thing, but very good for a low cal alternative. I will make them again.
