Zesty Taquitos with Plant-Based Mozzarella

Chicken Tenders, Beyond Meat® and Guacamole

While taquitos — a traditional Mexican street food — are typically deep-fried, we’ve baked ours for a healthier twist! They crisp up beautifully in the oven, while the cheesy centre melts. Served with guac and fresh DIY salsa, this dinner is out of the world.
