Irish meets Mexican in these baked Reuben taquitos with a thousand island dipping sauce. Classic Reuben flavor with a twist.
St. Patrick’s Day may be over but Reubens are good year-round, which is why you should use up any leftover corned beef that remains to make these taquitos. Oh yea you better believe I mixed Mexican and Irish into one amazing appetizer (or entree). I was inspired to do such a thing after experiencing Irish eggrolls for the first time and figured I could expand it into other food genres. Cooked corned beef is mixed with shredded cabbage and creamy swiss, then rolled into white corn tortillas to be oven-fried with a light spray of cooking oil. While they bake, whip up the thousand island dipping sauce and you’ll be ready to dive in.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with cooking spray.
In a large bowl mix together cabbage, corned beef, cheese and caraway until well blended.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Working 3 tortillas at a time, stack them on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel.
Cook 30 seconds, or until tortillas are soft and pliable.
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of filling onto each tortilla, and roll tightly *.
Place seam side-down on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
Spray the taquitos lightly with cooking spray.
Bake 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are crisp and golden-brown.
While the taquitos are baking, make the thousand island sauce.
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients stirring until blended.
Taste and season additionally if desired.
Serve with warm taquitos.
* Stop here to freeze. Roll up each individually in foil, place in ziplock bag and put in freezer. Cook by following remaining directions. (No thawing necessary.)
