• Feel free to customize the filling by adding additional ingredients such as diced bell peppers, jalapenos, or black beans.

Storage and Serving

• Bacon Wrapped Taquitos are best served immediately while the bacon is still crispy.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the taquitos on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
