I hardly ever eat breakfast, especially on the weekend. I have no idea why. I just always have been that way.
I sat in my bed too lazy to wake up yet tooo hungry to ignore my stomach. It was yelling at me. Thinking about how I am going to use up my 120 corn tortillas in my fridge (actually 40 in my fridge and 80 in the freezer). Gotta love Costco. Less than $3 for 120 tortillas now that's a STEAL.
Meat is not in my diet therefore I am on a constant mission to improvise anything I make. Veggie patties mashed with onions and voilà! I have taquitos.

There is the option to either fry or put it in the oven and bake it. Being a very impatient person, I opted to fry mine. I didn't have the patience to stare at an oven telling it to ¡apúrate!
My end result:
I might have cooked em a little toooo long. Oh well. It was crispy. Served with salsa and sour cream (Yes I am aware sour cream is dairy and I shouldn't have it. But I didn't care)I bet you can't tell that's not meat! |
My veggie taquitos were good. Definitely going to start making this more often.
I guess this is the beauty of living in California. You learn to make Mexican cuisine and get to the point of making "decent/good Mexican food" because you have something to compare it to. Imagine living in the middle of Tibet or China. If that is the case, your Mexican food is probably good there but don't expect too much when you return to the States- better yet, Mexico.
