Baked Chicken Bacon Ranch Taquitos - Six Sister's Stuff

Ingredients:

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese softened
4 cups cooked shredded chicken
12 slices bacon cooked and crumbled (We did not use bacon but they still tasted great!)
2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese (We used cheddar and it was fine)
3 to 4 tablespoons chopped green onion
1 (1-ounce) packet dry ranch dressing mix
20 (6-inch) flour tortillas (We also did some with wheat and corn tortillas and it added good flavor to them)
Salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix together cream cheese, chicken, shredded cheese and green onions. Add in about 1/2 of the dry ranch dressing mix and taste. Add more for stronger ranch flavor. Mix well. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into a flour tortilla and roll it up. Place taquito seam-side down on the baking sheet. Repeat about 20 times. Once finished spray the tops of the taquitos with nonstick cooking spray (or lightly brush olive oil on them) and sprinkle with salt. (I like to use sea salt.)
Place pan in oven and bake 10 to 15 minutes or until edges and tops are golden. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with ranch dressing or bleu cheese dressing for dipping.
Makes 16 taquitos
