Common mistakes
A frequent mistake is using cold tortillas, which crack when rolled. Always warm them first. Don’t skip the olive oil spray—it helps the taquitos crisp up in the oven. Using pre-shredded cheese can make the filling dry; freshly shredded cheese melts better. Avoid substituting flour tortillas, as they don’t get as crisp as corn.
