Big Fat Baked Taquitoes


Okay, it's no secret I love Mexican food!  I don't like it really spicy, but I can eat Nacho's at least once a week....just ask my husband!  He probably gets sick of them... This recipe is really good, fast and hearty!  Give it a try......

Big Fat Baked Taquitoes

1 lb. lean ground beef
6 to 10 flour tortillas 10"
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup cream cheese
1 diced bell pepper
3 diced green onions
1/4 diced whole onion
1/4 + 1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 Tbsp. seasoned salt
1 Tbsp. ground pepper
1 tsp. Taco Seasoning
1 small can green chilies
3 cups shredded mozzarella or mild cheddar cheese

Brown ground beef, 1/4 diced whole onion, bell pepper and Taco seasoning, salt and pepper in a skillet.  Drain well and put mixture back into the pan.  Add 1 cup of sour cream, 1/4 cup cream cheese, green chilies, the green onions and about 1/4 cup of evaporated milk to the pan.  Stir well to combine.

Ladle the mixture into 10" flour tortillas, reserving about 1 cup of the mixture in the pan.  Top with about 4 Tbsp. cheese and roll up.  You don't have to tuck in the ends like a burrito, just roll them up.  Place them in a rectangle baking dish 9x11 or so that has been sprayed with cooking spray.  Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes (or long enough to brown the tortillas).  Remove from heat and plate.  Top with some of the remaining sauce below.

To the remaining sauce in the pan, add an additional 1/4 cup of the evaporated milk to thin it out to a sauce and ladle over the top of the Taquitoes.

Enjoy!
