This has been a Thanksgiving staple in MY house, since I was a kid. Each year I try to share it so that others might have the opportunity to add it to their traditions... and get rid of that turkey It can also be made with chicken, so it's a year round favorite too!! Recipe makes 6, but can easily be doubled, tripled, quadrupled... etc. We had about 30 made this year, and with 7 adults and 3 kids they were gone in a heartbeat!
Ingredients:
1 cup shredded cooked turkey
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
mayonnaise (gotta use real mayo, enough to moisten & make it all stick together)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
6 (8 inch) flour tortillas
wooden toothpick
shredded lettuce
diced tomato
sliced ripe olives
salsa
sour cream
guacamole
Directions:
1. In Bowl, combine cooked turkey, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, mayo and cumin. Place mixture down the center of each flour tortilla. Roll tortillas around fillings and pick each with a wooden toothpick to hold tortilla together. In large skillet, in hot oil, fry tortillas until crisp and golden brown. Drain tortillas on paper towels, remove toothpicks. Serve flautas with desired toppings and Mexican condiments such as sour cream, guacamole and salsa.
