Ingredients
- 10 6" corn tortillas $1.50 for 20
- 10 thin stalks asparagus, cleaned, ends trimmed $2
- 1 15-oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed $1.50
- 1/2 cup shredded jack cheese $3.50 for 12 oz
- 3 scallions, sliced $1 for a bunch
- 1/2 tsp chili powder, plus more for garnish $1.50 for 1 oz
- salt to taste Pantry
- vegetable or olive oil, for frying Pantry
Directions
- Heat the beans in a small saucepan over medium heat or in a microwave for 1 minute on high, until heated through. Mash with the back of a fork until nearly smooth. Add chili powder and salt to taste. Set aside.
- Microwave the tortillas on high for 20-25 seconds or until pliable (in the absence of a microwave, wrap the tortillas tightly in foil and bake at 350 degrees F for 10-15 minutes).
- Using a rubber scraper/spatula, gently spread each tortilla with a thin layer of beans. Top beans with a stalk of asparagus and a sprinkle of both cheese and scallions. Roll tightly and place, seam-side-down on a clean plate. Repeat until all ingredients are used up.
- Heat about 1/2-inch of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook taquitos, a few at a time, in the hot oil until golden brown one one side. Rotate, using metal tongs, until all sides are cooked. Drain on paper towels and repeat with remaining taquitos.
- Serve taquitos garnished with a sprinkle of chili powder and sour cream, and salsa for dipping.

I just made these, and they are amazing. I’d like to also say that the crab cakes with lemon caper mayonaise are also delicious!
