Prep Time:

Ingredients

  • rotisserie chicken -fully cooked or any shreadabnle leftover chciken
  • 2/3 – 1 cup of jarred or fresh salsa
  • 1 cup shredded “Mexican blend” cheese
  • 1/3 cup corn
  • 1/3 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed well
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • salt and pepper
  • large pinch of chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • 1 pack of egg roll wrappers You can subsititue with soft taco shells

*I’m thinking that a little chopped baby spinach would be good in here, too.  So much nutrition… but that would totally depend on whom you are making them for.

Directions

Step 1

Preheat Oven to 375

Step 2

Remove the chicken from the rotisserie chicken and chop into small bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Mix the next seven ingredients into the chicken and mix well.

Step 4

Add a few spoonsful of the chicken mixture to an eggroll wrapper.  Fold in the sides first, then roll.  Wet the far end with water so it will stick to itself.

Step 5

Spray a cookie sheet with butter flavored nonstick spray and arrange the taquitos.  Spray the tops of them with the butter-flavored spray and sprinkle with black pepper and extra cumin.

Step 6

Bake  for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.  It would be nice to turn them onto their sides if you can remember.  Serve with condiments of choice.  I had light sour cream, salsa, and remove the chicken from the rotisserie chicken, and chop into small bite-sized pieces.
