Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

RECIPE VARIATIONS

• Greek Yogurt: Swap for blended cottage cheese or cream cheese if needed.
• Tortillas: Fajita size are best for crisping on the outside without being soggy in the middle.
• Not a fan of spice? Take the hot sauce to 1/4 cup or add in extra greek yogurt.
• Here is the recipe for my crispy baked tacos- these taquitos can be made using that filling if you prefer a less spicy option!
• No air fryer? Bake on 450 until crispy and golden brown.
