Corn and Beef Taquitos Recipe

July 19, 2021 · Rhelena · Leave a Comment

This corn and beef taquitos recipe is quick and easy to make and cooks up in about 45 minutes. It’s delicious and kid-friendly, so you can make this fairly frequently without anyone complaining.

And did I mention that it is filling? It’s loaded with corn, ground beef and two cups of cheddar cheese to help keep you feeling full.

Another bonus is that you can store any leftovers in the fridge for a few days, making this a great recipe for everyone to enjoy!

The Ingredients

Beef. Lean, organic and grass fed is my favorite, but choose whatever you normally get.

Corn. I used canned corn, but corn fresh from the cob will work just as well. The corn cooks up quickly in about 5 minutes or so, making it a perfect swap.

Taco Seasoning. Use whatever you normally use for tacos. I have my own homemade taco seasoning recipe, which is made with all natural ingredients. It’s a mild recipe, but if you like hot, by all means add a little more cayenne to spice it up!

If you decide to use a store bought seasoning, you may need to add in additional water as they generally contain thickening agents.

Tomato Sauce. You only need half a cup to give it the tomato flavor I was going for. I don’t know any cans that come that small, but you can save the leftovers in the fridge for a few days for use in other recipes.

Cheese. Choose your favorite brand of cheddar. I like to grate mine fresh at home, but to save time you can buy it shredded.

Tortillas. Choose your favorite from white, to whole wheat, corn or other specialty tortillas. I used whole wheat because they are healthier. But I have to be honest, in terms of flour tortillas, white taste the best. With that said, corn tortillas will really take you to Mexico!

Dipping Sauce. Plain old sour cream! You can always spice this up with lime and cilantro if you like. Plain sour cream also pairs well with salsa.
