Beef Taquitos

Erin: For a quick & easy meal during the week, try beef taquitos. They were fast but still really good.

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for brushing on the taquitos
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
3/4 pound lean ground beef
1 cup salsa
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
10 flour tortillas
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar

What to do:
1. Heat the oven to 400º
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and  then add the onion and garlic and cook them for 3 minutes, stirring often.
3. Add the beef and cook until it is no longer red, about 3 minutes.
4. Stir in 1/2 cup of the salsa, the chili powder, and the salt and pepper. Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
5. Top each tortilla with the beef mixture, spreading it to an inch from the edges. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the beef.
6. Roll up the tortillas and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet with the seam sides down. Brush the taquitos lightly with vegetable oil, then bake them until the filling is heated through and the tortillas are lightly browned, about 10 minutes
