15 minIngredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/3 cup frozen corn
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped bell pepper, any color
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
1/3 cup reduced fat Arla Cream Cheese, at room temperature
1 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon or lime juice
1 13-ounce can all natural chicken breast, drained
1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, plus more for topping
8 to 10 organic corn tortillas
Salsa, plain Greek yogurt, mashed avocado, for serving (optional)
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
-
In a small pan sauté, heat the olive oil over moderate heat. Add the corn, onion, bell pepper, and garlic and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Add to a medium bowl and combine all the remaining ingredients except the tortillas.
-
In a large nonstick pan or in the oven, warm the tortillas. (This way they won't break apart when baking.) Place 2-3 large spoonfuls of the mixture in a line on a lower 1/3 of the tortilla, leaving about 1/2 inch of space from the edge.
-
Once all your taquitos are rolled, lightly drizzle the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
-
Roll them up tightly and then placed on a sprayed cookie sheet. Bake for 15-20 min, or until nice and crispy!
-
Serve with salsa, plain greek yogurt, mashed avocado, or a combination of all three and ENJOY!!
