Ingredients
- 1 (16-ounce, bulk) package beef chorizo sausage, casing removed
- 1 cup medium chunky salsa, drained
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 6 fajita-size flour tortillas
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large skillet, saute sausage over medium heat until browned, about 6 minutes.
Drain 1/4 cup of oil from cooked sausage. Set sausage aside to cool.
Stir salsa and cheese into sausage in skillet. Place 1 tortilla on a clean work surface.
Spoon 1/4 cup of the sausage mixture down the center of tortilla.
Fold tortilla in half, then roll up. Secure with toothpicks. Place on a foil-covered cookie sheet.
Repeat 5 times. Bake until filling is hot and tortilla is crisp and golden brown, about 18 minutes.
Cut taquitos in half crosswise. Serve hot with guacamole and sour cream.
