Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup medium Picante sauce
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients listed before tortillas. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
-
Step 3: Warm the tortillas in the microwave to soften, about 20-30 seconds. Place a tortilla on a work surface. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling mixture down the middle of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla up tightly around the filling.
-
Step 4: Place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling, spacing the assembled taquitos evenly on the baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with oil or spray with cooking spray.
-
Step 5: Bake 15-20 minutes or until crisp and golden brown. Serve with sour cream and additional salsa, if desired.
