To prepare, these taquitos can be heated in an oven, microwave, or air fryer. For best results and a crispy texture, oven or air fryer heating is recommended. Ensure they are heated thoroughly until the filling is hot and the tortilla is golden brown and crisp. Avoid overcrowding the cooking surface if using an oven or air fryer to allow for even heating and crisping. They are best served immediately after heating.

How to keep the rest
After opening the package, any remaining taquitos should be resealed tightly and kept in the freezer. Ensure they are stored at a consistent temperature to maintain their quality and prevent freezer burn. Consume within the recommended timeframe for best taste and texture.
