1 pound of shredded beef ( Costco has a really good selection if you do not want to shredd your own)
You can also use shredded chicken :)
garlic salt
2 table spoons of black pepper
Guerrerro corn tortillas
toothpicks
Tip for easy cleaning before making the taquitos. Cover your work station with alluminum foil. This will allow you to have clean counter tops when you are all done and can just throw away the alluminum foil.
Preperation. Shredd the beef very thinly and add about 2 table spoons of black pepper to season.
In a comal heat desired tortillas on both sides. You do not want to over cook the tortillas just cook them enought to bend.
Note: if you place the tortillas on top of each other and cover them they will get soggy.
In a skillet heat about 3 cups of vegtable oil. Keep at medium high heat.
To roll the Taquitos:
Take a tortilla and place a desired amount of beef and roll. You want to make sure that you roll the taquitos this will prevent from too much oil to get into them. Put a toothpick in between to keep them from openning in the oil.
Cook about 4-6 at a time in the skillet depending on the size. Cook until they are golden brown. As you take them out put them on a baking dish with paper towels to drain out the oil. While they are still hot sprinkle desired garlic salt on top. You may put them in the oven to keep warm.
Guacamole:
5 avocados
1 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of low fat cottage cheese
Take the pit out of the avocados and dissgard.
With a potato smasher smash the avocados until you get the consistancy you would like. Add salt and cottage cheese after wards.
An walla there you have it, a simply dish that is a crowd pleaser!
