An easy and delicious dinner or snack that can be put together in minutes!
Slow Cooker Baked Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken Taquitos #crockpot
Can I tell you how much I’ve loved this basic shredded chicken recipe that I did a while back?  It has been a staple in our freezer.  We’ve used it for casseroles, salads, dips, soups and these taquitos!  You need to try it!  It is perfectly seasoned and it takes only minutes to get it going in the slow cooker.

Anyhow, these taquitos were a product of me failing to think before 5 pm what we should have for dinner.  Gasp!  Yes, it does happen to me more than you would think.  No, I don’t always have my slow cooker cooking each and every day.  
We all loved these and they were gobbled up in seconds.  You can definitely use less or more hot sauce to taste, however you like it!  We served ours with a little ranch dressing with a few squirts of hot sauce in it.  I will definitely be making these again the next time I fail to get the slow cooker going in the morning.  4 stars.
Slow Cooker Baked Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken Taquitos

Makes 4 servings

2 cups of this chicken
1/4 cup your favorite hot sauce
1/4 cup softened cream cheese (I used the low fat kind)

4 whole wheat tortillas (or whatever kind you like)
1 cup grated cheese of your choice (I used plain old cheddar)
Non stick cooking spray


1.  Preheat the oven to 425 degree F.   In a bowl, combine the chicken, hot sauce and cream cheese.  Stir until combined really well.
2.  Spoon a fourth of the chicken mixture down the middle of each tortilla.  Then sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese on top of the chicken mixture.
3.  Roll up the tortillas tightly.  Spray the taquito with non stick cooking spray briefly and place on a baking sheet (I like to line my pan with parchment so there is no clean up).  Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.
4.  Serve and enjoy!

    I make something similar using crescent rolls instead of the tortillas, but I love this idea! Adding the hot sauce is brilliant too! YUM!
