CHEESY TACO POCKETS RECIPE
I like dishes which you can serve with different toppings. Taco Pockets is an ideal recipe for a party because everyone can choose the topping they like.

Ingredients
- - 1 lb ground beef;
- - 2 tbsp taco seasoning, depends on the instructions on the packet;
- - 8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature;
- - ½ cup salsa;
- - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese;
- - 2 tbsp butter, melted;
- - 12 small tortillas.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking tray or baking dish with a parchment paper.
- Brown ground beef in a skillet. Add taco seasoning depending on the packet instruction (we use 2 tbsp). Turn off the heat.
- Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer. Add salsa when cream cheese is fluffy. Then, mix until well combined.
- Place tortilla on the work surface. Add 1 tbsp of cream cheese and salsa mixture to the center of the tortilla. Cover this mixture with cooked beef. Then, top with shredded cheddar cheese. Wrap tortilla the same as a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Place taco pockets on the prepared baking tray. Then, brush wrapped tortillas with melted butter and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until taco pockets are golden and cheese melts. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings (guacamole, hot sauce, salsa, sour cream).
