Our most awesome host Tammy over at Country Girl at Home is awesome and I’m so thankful she does this! It’s really fun and inspires me to not just pin, but have some fun too!

 

 

 

The original pinned recipe

 

Chicken and Cream Cheese Taquitos

 

3 cups cooked shredded chicken (I like rotisserie)

6 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup sour cream

1/2 cup salsa

1 + 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 + 1/2 cups chopped baby spinach, stems removed

coarse salt and fresh black pepper, to taste

9 - 10 (6-inch) flour tortillas

vegetable or canola oil, for frying

 

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl mix together the chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, cheddar and spinach. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Working with one tortilla at a time spread 2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture off center and spread out like a log. Roll up and set seam side down on a platter. Repeat until all the tortillas are filled and rolled.
3. Add enough oil to a large skillet to generously cover the bottom. Heat on medium heat, cook tortillas in batches, until golden brown on each side. Remove to paper towels to drain.
4. Serve with your choice of dunking sauce.

 

 

I didn’t fry ours. I baked them at 350. I also used larger tortillas, so they were larger. But I just used what was on hand.  And I omitted the spinach, as it was a last minute deal. And didn’t have any. Also instead of regular sour cream, I stirred in some that I had mixed with a packet of fiesta ranch dry mix.

 

 

 

 

They turned out great! I will next time add in the spinach. But I really liked the flavor with the fiesta ranch mixed with the sour cream.

 

Hope you enjoy these!
