A great option for vegetarians, baked taquitos are perfect for game days or even lunch. They are easy to make with only five ingredients!
This post is part of my partnership with Sabra®.
I think I talk about this every year, but some people watch the Superbowl for the football. (Weird, I know.) I’m all about the food – am I alone? Specifically, finger foods and dip. If you can have them together, all the better.
I couldn’t even tell you who is playing. That’s been decided, right? Oh my goodness, that’s really bad. My husband would be ashamed, ha! The good news is, if I do watch football, I can follow along and I understand what is going on. That counts for something, right? Do you even believe me? It’s true, I promise. I know what a touchdown is…I just don’t really care. And if I had to choose, I’d choose college football over pro-football.
And I love going to high school football games, it’s a really fun part of being a high school principal’s wife. Sometimes Ben just brings the kids and gives me some time to myself. That’s pretty fun too, even though 95% of the time I spend those precious hours working. (That’s how much I love you guys.)
Anyways, if I’m watching football at home with more people than just Ben, there’s gonna need to be plenty of great snacks like these baked taquitos. (If it’s just Ben and me, I usually have a laptop in front of me and I’m working again…sense a theme?)
If you are a vegetarian or have friends or family who are vegetarians, these baked taquitos are a great option. Just make sure the refried beans you purchase are vegetarian. Or better yet, try my homemade slow cooker refried beans.
These taquitos are a bit time-consuming to roll, but they’re super simple and easy despite that. I use Sabra Classic Guacamole but if you like things spicy, they have a great spicy variety too.
To make the baked taquitos, you spread beans mixed with homemade taco seasoning on a flour tortilla, then the guacamole, and then sprinkle on the cheese. Roll them up and bake! That’s really all there is to it.
The best part is, of course, the dipping. Sour cream, homemade restaurant style salsa, smoky chipotle salsa, or more guacamole! Warm cheese queso or this healthier butternut squash queso would be so good, too!
More Tex-Mex type appetizers:
- 7-layer dip (the best!)
- Cauliflower Nachos
- Quesadilla Nachos
- Poblano Queso Dip
- Mexican corn dip (street corn in a dip)
- Mexican spinach dip
- Mango avocado salsa with pineapple and tortilla chips
- Healthy Southwestern black bean dip (secret ingredient!)

taquitos
A great option for vegetarians, baked taquitos are perfect for game days or even lunch. They are easy to make with only five ingredients!
Ingredients
- 2 cans (16 ounces each) black bean refried beans
- 2 teaspoons [taco seasoning]
- 20 small flour tortillas
- 2 packages (8 ounces each) Sabra® Classic Guacamole
- 2 cups shredded Mexican-style cheese
- nonstick baking spray
- salsa or sour cream for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix refried beans with taco seasoning until combined.
- Lay one tortilla on a flat surface. Down the middle of the tortilla, spread 1-2 tablespoons of beans. On top, add about one tablespoon Sabra Classic Guacamole. Sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon of cheese. Roll up tightly and place on baking sheet seam side down.
- Continue this process until all tortillas have been filled and rolled.
- Spray tops with nonstick baking spray (it will help the tortillas get nice and crispy!) and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve with salsa or sour cream for dipping.
Notes
- Serving size: 2 taquitos.

Raj says
These look great!! I’ve always hesitated to make taquitos because I always think I they’re going to pop open! Is there something you do to make sure they don’t roll open or is baking them sufficient? Thanks!!
Rachel Gurk says
If you bake them with the seam side down, they hold their shape really well!
Jody says
I made these tonight and they were delicious and so easy! They were so good that my hubby ate 3 of them before I could finish one. I used my own guac recipe and homemade taco seasoning. Next time I’ll use your recipe for slow cooker refried beans, but with black beans instead. Thanks Rachel!.
Rachel Gurk says
I’m so happy to hear you guys liked this recipe! Thanks for taking the time to come back and leave a comment – it means a lot to me! I hope you love the beans!
Bijal Patel says
Jody-Can you please share your recipe for taco seasoning. Thanks
Rachel Gurk says
I have a great one here!
Star says
… flautas not taquitos
Katy Mattingly says
Are these good reheated? I bought the stuff and I’m making them tomorrow. I’m cutting the receipe in half because it’s just me. 10 taquitos is a lot to eat at once. Just wondering how they tasted the next day, if you have tried it.
Rachel Gurk says
I haven’t tried them the next day but I think they’d be great reheated, especially if you did it in the oven or toaster oven (microwave won’t make them crispy).
Meagan says
Would this be good to freeze?
Rachel Gurk says
I have not frozen these so I’m not sure. Let me know it goes if you try it!
Patty K says
I’m all about the food too!!! And commercials :) Thanks for sharing the Sabra promotion!
Susan Hurley says
I love, love, love your blog and recipes! And I can’t wait to try this one! I agree with you about Super Bowl being largely about the food, and THIS is now at the top of my Super Bowl menu! However, the editor in me forces me to let you know that “just Ben and I” should actually be “just Ben and me.” The trick is to remove “Ben and.” You wouldn’t say “just I,” would you? However, as long as your recipes are good, who really cares about grammar?
Rachel Gurk says
Ha…you must have gotten to this post before my mom did. She always emails me all of my typos. Thank you for the kind words and corrections. Often I write my posts after a long day with two toddlers so the state of my brain is a bit mushy. ;)
Nicole says
There always has to be one. ~.~
Rachel Gurk says
Yup! :-P
Maggie says
Come on why say that??? If it doesn’t matter why bust her chops on her grammar
Rachel Gurk says
:) I’m all for good grammar but I type a lot of words everyday…mistakes are bound to happen!
DessertForTwo says
I have never made oven taquitos! Why am I so dumb? I’m making these! Love that they’re vegetarian :)
denise says

I didn’t know Sabra had guac, will have to look for it!
