This simple idea makes a terrific quick and easy weekday dinner, using leftover chicken or pork too. You can use a good bottled barbeque sauce or make your own to control the amount of sugar. Add a little homemade salsa or just serve them with fresh diced tomatoes and avocado as shown here to add some nutritious veggies to the meal.

Makes 6 large taquitos, enough for 3-4 servings. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

To a small saute pan over medium heat add:

• 1 medium red onion diced small
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• pinch salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Saute only until the onions soften but are not browned. Remove from heat and add:

• 2 rare grilled strip loin steaks, diced
• 1/2 cup barbeque sauce
• 1 tbsp chilli powder
• 1 tsp chipotle powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• 1 cup small diced cheddar cheese

Toss together well and divide the filling between the 6 tortillas. Roll the tortillas as tightly as possible and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, seam side down. Lightly brush the outsides of the taquitos with olive oil and bake for 20 minutes or so or until the outsides are crispy and golden brown. Serve with diced tomatoes and avocado or your favorite salsa.
