Oven Baked Taquitos

Another healthy Mexican recipe for you all. Can you tell that I love Mexican food? To be completely honest, I have never had taquitos before. We don’t get them in restaurants over here in the UK, but then again we don’t get authentic Mexican restaurants. So, I checked out a few recipes online and then just changed them all :)

 

Serves 2

Ingredients:

- 1 courgette (zucchini)

- 1 red and one green pepper

- 10 mushrooms

- 1 onion

- Mexican seasoning (1tsp cumin, 1 tsp ground coriander, 1 tsp paprika, 1tsp onion power, 1 tsp garlic granules, 1tsp sugar, 2tsp chipotle flakes or 1 tsp chili powder (make it as spicy or mild as you like).)

- Chicken, Prawns or cooked Beans (which ever you want to add)

- 4 small tortilla wraps

- 40g cheddar cheese, grated

- Salsa and Guacamole to serve.

 

1) Cut the vegetables into thin slices and cook in some spray oil for 5 minutes, until softened.

 

2) Add the seasoning and the chicken/prawns/cooked beans.

 

3) Place some of the mixture on one side of the tortilla and sprinkle with some cheese.

 

4) Roll into a thin cigar and secure with a toothpick. I cut mine I used leftover large tortillas I made.

 

5) Bake at 190/375/Gas Mark 5 and serve with salsa and guacamole.
